It seems there's a little hope to make progress with FreeBSD on EC2=2C as A= mazon posted this announcement : http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2010/07/use-you= r-own-kernel-with-amazon-ec2.html=20 I couldn't read the documentation about how to do this but they say "You co= uld (if you are sufficiently adept) use this facility to launch an operatin= g system that we don't support directly (e.g. FreeBSD). If you manage to do= this=2C please feel free to let me know". Does anyone knows how to do this actually ? Or is this really possible ?=20 I've been waiting for an FreeBSD ec2 image for years now ! I know there's a= lot of persons waiting also around so if anyone knows how to make this hap= pen=2C please post somehting !!!! Thanks ! Z. =
