Second, the Linux AMI

1. Select the instance store-backed Ami to create the instance.

2. Prepare the following:

• Installing the AMI tool on an instance
• Installing the AWS CLI Tools on an instance
• Confirm or create a S3 bucket
• Confirm or create the authentication information: 1) The AWS Account ID;2) and the corresponding private key, 3) the access key ID of the AWS Access user and secret access key
• Remote login instance for custom configuration

3. Log in to the EC2 instance and use the following command to create the bundle's root volume:

Ec2-bundle-vol-k/tmp/cert/pk-hkzyktaig2ecmxyibh3hxv4zbexample.pem-c/tmp/cert/ Cert-hkzyktaig2ecmxyibh3hxv4zbexample.pem-u your_aws_account_id-r x86_64-e/tmp/cert--partition GPT

This command takes a few minutes to complete and generates bundles (Image.manifest.xml and several image.part.xx files) under the/tmp folder.

4. Upload the bundle to S3 using the following command:

Ec2-upload-bundle-b my-s3-bucket/bundle_folder/bundle_name-m/tmp/image.manifest.xml-a your_access_key_id-s your_ Secret_access_key

5. Register the image uploaded to S3 using the following command:

Ec2-register my-s3-bucket/bundle_folder/bundle_name/image.manifest.xml-n ami_name-o your_access_key_id-w your_ Secret_access_key--virtualization-type HVM
