I doubt that it''s possible -- vagrant is setup to handle Sun/Oracle
Virtualbox and Ec2 is based on Xen images. In my experience it is best to
use images from well known sources. One option is to use Amazon linux
which is a sort of Centos/Fedora hybrid that is supported by Amazon and has
the paravirtualization patches you need. There are many other community
ami''s out there you can use as well. Make sure you start with an ebs
backed ami. One nice feature of AWS is that you can create an ebs from a
running instance, so you can start with a basic one, add some things you
know you want, and then use that as your starting point. This might
include for example an installation of the puppet packages and some basic
installation that gets a new instance ready to talk to the puppet master.
Then you concentrate on the manifests that built a particular type of node.
