Running Slackware Instances in AWS (EC2)
Greetings fellow Slackers,
Someone (not me!) deleted the old documentation previously at https://docs.slackware.com/howtos:cloud:aws_ec2. I've today provided a replacement. I'm far from an AWS expert having got my account only two weeks ago so consider my new page a 'Beta'. Comments about that page and the companion DomU preparation page most welcome either here or on the wiki. Have fun! |
thank you for this.
I may need it in the near future. |

I didn't flesh out details of e.g. installing Slackware in a VM, and didn't bother explaining how to run the kernel under Xen as a test. I did that myself I just didn't document it, because by the time you've setup Xen under Slackware you could already have your instance up and running on AWS. If you feel my version is missing anything I can try to add that back, the most important omission is compilation of Amazon tools for the instance, but I don't need them right now. If I do I'll be sure to add them or I could perhaps put back your original section on that. It was optional in any case. |
Sure! The article I wrote may be adapted or rewritten to whatever you feel appropriate. You don't even need to get anything from it, just like you did and looks pretty objective.
