You got me thinking :-) It *should* actually be possible to bootstrap EBS backed instances locally: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/importing-your-volumes-into-amazon-ebs.html You can upload EBS snapshots. AWS supports VMDK, VHD and RAW formats! I didn't know that until just now, hence my previous insistence on runniong bootstrap-vz in a ec2 environment. This is definitely something we could support in bootstrap-vz. p.s.: Explicitly CC'ed Tiago and James to get their attention and input on this, though maybe it should be in another thread -- Anders Ingemann
