Is there a list of AWS AMI ids (and regions) containing Colin’s AMI builder AMI? The 2015 article http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2015-11-21-FreeBSD-AMI-builder-AMI.html <http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2015-11-21-FreeBSD-AMI-builder-AMI.html>; mentions one in us-east-1 ami-28682f42. Are there more? Or a documented procedure on using RE tools to achieve the same?

I am particularly interested in recompiling 11.1 release kernel, adding a good few packages (to speed up instance launch time) and creating an AMI out of that. Of course, I can take the lazy route of building a normal AWS AMI, which will not be as “clean and unused” as the one suggested in Colin’s article. But if there is a current way to do the cleaner thing, I would like to know, please.

Many thanks,
Rafal
