I'm going to try to consolidate the various wikis here that address the steps needed to create a Mercury EBS Boot Instance.

As far as I can tell these are the ones:

Install Steps

1) Step by Step Mecury 1.1 Wiki

• http://groups.drupal.org/node/70268

2) Set EC2 Consistent Snapshot

• http://groups.drupal.org/node/36766

Additional Information

• http://www.shlomoswidler.com/2010/01/creating-consistent-snapshots-of-li...

3) Set up EBS for Mercury

• http://groups.drupal.org/node/33092

Not sure if this is needed since an EBS Boot Instance is already on EBS

4) Move Pressflow to the EBS Volume

• http://groups.drupal.org/node/73278#comment-230623

Not sure if this is needed since Pressflow is already on the EBS Boot Instance

5) Set up EBS as a RAID

• http://groups.drupal.org/node/36750

6) Configure Mercury’s Template system

• http://groups.drupal.org/node/70258

Optional

7) Install Munin to Monitor Mercury
