How to transfer Virtual Images between machines?
I got an Amazon EC2 account and wanted to upload image from my laptop to Amazon. First few attempts took way too long (creating the AMI was another saga). So I thought there has to be a better way to do this. After searching for a couple of hours, here are all the links I found. Finally I just went to amazon and redid all the work starting from a pre-registered public AMI.
