Yeah, that's fine. What I was saying is simply that there are no instance types in EC2 which support both EBS and 32 bit. ------------------------ Mike: > The more I think about it - why do we need 32bit AMIs in the first place? > EC2, Openstack, and company all support 64bit OOTB.

I don't know many people who use 32 bit cloud images. 64 bit is available for every EC2 instance type, and like you said, other services support it. I'm likely not the best person to ask why we provide 32 bit images, though. It could be a legacy thing, but it might also be habit. ------------------------ -- oddshocks _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
