euca2ools aims to be an open source drop-in replacement for most of 
ec2-*-tools.  While you folks are working with your images, please try 
installing the euca2ools package and running euca-attach-volume instead 
of ec2-attach-volume, euca-run-instances instead of ec2-run-instances, 
and so forth so we can get things working without needing to install 
proprietary bits from Amazon.
