Dear All A quick update.
I just bundled a 30Gb EBS backed AMI for Windows 64, Revolution R and R64, Deducer,R Commander,Java SDK, Chrome, Open Office, Acrobat Reader. The AMI can be searched as a public image (search for "ohR") You can mail me for the admin password if you want to explore it further. AMI ID:ami-f4b7439d Name:ohR Description:64bit windows, deducer,chrome,pdf,rcmdr,open office,R,Revo R Academic 4.0 Source:837793388858/ohR Owner:837793388858 Visibility:Public Product Code: State:available Kernel ID:- RAM Disk ID:- Image Type:machine Architecture:x86_64 Platform:Windows Root Device Type:ebs Root Device:/dev/sda1 Image Size:30 GiB Block Devices:/dev/sda1=snap-3af4e951:30:true Regards, Ajay ps- I deleted the snapshot, instead using the AMI is faster.
