Change static ip to kernel dhcp and remove initrd
http://github.com/yejun/ec2build
Update 2010/8/28
The network configure will be saved when image first time booted. If you want to revert to dhcp in case you need to rebuild or stop. You should run this
sudo /etc/rc.d/ec2 stop
I also changed default cflags, so if you wantto recompile packages, you can use srcpac. For example
sudo abs extra/python
sudo srcpac -Sb python
Update 2010/8/21
Add a user arch with the same ssh key as root.
The hostname is now static, if you want to rebundle, make sure change HOSTNAME in rc.conf to myhost and remove last line of /etc/hosts.
Update 2010/7/22Updated to BTRFS as root.
Update 2010/7/20Updated to pvgrub and EBS root.
You probably need to "chmod 1777 /tmp" after boot.
IntroductionThis is a very basic archlinux with just ssh.
If you need packaged ec2-ami-tools or the script to make this image. You can find them here.

nisdomainname $MYDOMAIN
/etc/rc.d/syslog-ng restart
x=$(curl -s http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/local-ipv4)
if [ $(echo $x|grep 404|wc -l) -eq 0 ]; then
cat <<EOF>/etc/hosts
#<ip-address> <hostname.domain.org> <hostname>
