I know, I had already converted it to raw. The question was,
how do I launch it, but after some experimentation and reading, 
I *think* I may have sussed it out. So far, the instance boots
and loads its services (it's a web server) but it's hanging halfway
through the loading process, and I can't make it abort loading them
with ctrl-c for example.

cheers,
