ec2-ami-tools shouldn&#39;t have been installed if I recall correctly, as it is not FOSS.  I (perhaps incorrectly?) remember someone saying it would be removed from the next image version.  I&#39;ve had Life(tm) happening as of late so I haven&#39;t been at many of the recent meetings or tried to stay in the loop much, so I may be incorrect about that.<div>
<br></div><div>Either way, you can remove it easily enough, without worry.  Unless you&#39;ll be allocating new AWS recources from the instance, it&#39;s not going to be of use - and if you do want to do such a thing, euca2ools are better, anyway.<div>

Hello,<br>
<br>
I just tested the Fedora 14 EC2 AMIs, 32 and 64 bit and there are<br>
visible problems...Here is a scenario where I just launch an instance,<br>
install Apache and start it. It works on the 64-Bit box but not at all<br>
on the 32-Bit box... On the 32-Bit box, Apache just never starts (it<br>
hangs at Starting httpd until you hit Ctrl+C) and in any case there are<br>
RPMDB errors...<br>
<br>
Any clue on what&#39;s going on?<br>
<br>
