Hi everyone !

I'm trying to find out if anyone succeeded to run FreeBSD on EC2. Well to be honest,  I'm trying to run FreeBSD on EC2 myself, but since I haven't found any way to do this... ;-)

- I just saw 2 netbst images on EC2 named 
fbsdtest/netbsd-image-5.0.2-i386.manifest.xml and 
fbsdtest/netbsd-image-5.0.2-amd64.manifest.xml

Those are both public images. I haven't tried them yet but if someone 
managed to run netbst I think we're quiet close to have some fun on 
FreeBSD now.


There seems to have more and more  notifiable attempts and we seem closer to the target :
- http://www.ioncannon.net/system-administration/1205/installing-cent-os-5-5-on-ec2-with-the-cent-os-5-5-kernel/
here an article of a (failed) attempt with FreeBSD (at the end of the article)

If anyone has more informations on the subject, could you please update this list so we stay updated on the matter ?

Thanks !
Z.
