Fedora xen - Jul 2007 - Virt Machine Manager + Amazon S3 for EC2 usage

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hey guys,

I just saved a minimal FC7 installation to a local file, and am in  
the process of uploading it to Amazon S3 with the intention of  
creating an Amazon EC2 virtual instance. The way I formatted my file  
was quite simple... its just one ext3 root directory (so no swap,  
boot, LVM, etc... directories). Has anyone done this before? Were you  
successful? Amazon''s Developer Guide suggests using Yum to install  
the operating system, but I thought that using the Virtual Machine  
Manager would be a lot easier. Anyways, I am in the (long) process of  
uploading a 2.5 GB image to S3, so I wanted to hear some feedback as  
to whether or not this will work as smoothly as I hope before I waste  
any more time. Thanks in advance!
