Launching a Fedora 16 EC2 Instance

Eoghan,

The AMI I tried to run is ami-5f16d836 (a 32 bit image) which should run 
just fine on m1.small.

AWS prevents us from running 64 bit images on 32 bit instances so I 
couldn't even launch the instance if I used wrong AMI.

Good to know that ami-0316d86a works fine!
