http://groups.drupal.org/node/33092 has the instructions for migrating to the EBS, you'd basically skip to step four and skip the moving the mysql database to the EBS volume instructions. Just remove the mysql files that are there by default and mount the EBS volume. I'll try to get around to writing up a Wiki page for restoring and EBS volume this weekend.

sure you can move anything to the EBS volume. I would suggest using rsync or copying the files at intervals since you'll lose some performance by moving the files to EBS. Files that live in the actual instance are served up a bit faster.
