I'm trying to create an AMI from my running Amazon instance. My running instance is a mercury 1.1beta which I initiated from the public Mercury 1.1beta public AMI.
I'm using this command where 123456789123 is my actual Amazon user ID:
$ sudo ec2-bundle-vol -d /mnt/amis -k /mnt/ids/pk-*.pem -c /mnt/ids/cert-*.pem -u 123456789123 -r i386
I get the following:
