Latests version of the ks file is here:
http://github.com/huff/kickstart-stuff/blob/master/fedora-ec2-min.ks
to generate the image run the command:
# mkdir include (this is for the kernels)
# appliance-creator --cache /var/cache/ac/ -d -v -i ./include -n
fedora-ec2-image -c
http://github.com/huff/kickstart-stuff/raw/master/fedora-ec2-min.ks
I ran some tests tonight and was able to boot this image in kvm on f12
with no selinux issues, I did have to change the fs=label, and fstabb/c
kvm did not like xvda, but had no problem booting this image.
I was not able to test in xen however. If someone could provide me with
example xen paravirt config file (non hvm), I will try and test in xen
tomorrow.
I was able to boot this image on a RHEL5.5 box with xen
xen-3.0.3-105.el5. Again I had to change back to sda in both grub.conf
and fstab instead of xvda (why did we change to xvda?) however I had no
selinux issues.
