Please open a bug. Ideally run 'ubuntu-bug' from inside ami-6836dc01. I'm not actually sure if that will work for you or not on hardy, but if it does, that is preferred. If not, just open a bug and add the tag 'ec2-images' and copy me. Then, when it hangs, please get console output (ec2-get-console-output) and attach to bug. > > - launch instance of ami-7e28ca17 (instance #1) > - modprobe loop on instance #1 > - copy up creds, jdk and ec2-ami-tools to /dev/shm on instance #1 > - launch instance of ami-69d73000 > (canonical-beta-us/ubuntu-intrepid-beta2-20090226-i386.manifest.xml) > to grab kernel modules from (instance #2) > - tar.gz /lib/modules/2.6.27-22-xen on instance #2 > - scp to instance #1 and untar in /lib/modules > - rm -rf the old /lib/modules/2.6.24-10-xen dir on instance #1 > - edit quick-bundle script on instance #1 to hard-code AKI to > aki-20c12649, ARI to ari-21c12648 (the AKI and ARI from instance #2). > - hard-coded manifest name, bucket to whatever. > - run pre-clean script on instance #1 > - run quick-bundle script on instance #1 > > -- > Ubuntu-cloud mailing list > [email protected] > Modify settings or unsubscribe at: > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-cloud > > -- Ubuntu-cloud mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-cloud
