Description

Several Sysbox users have asked for AWS AMIs that include Ubuntu + Shiftfs + Sysbox. This makes it easier for them to create AWS EC2 VMs that have Sysbox in them.

This Sysbox discussion thread provides information on how to do it. Nestybox should look into creating such AMI(s) for Sysbox users.

Start with the linked Sysbox discussion thread for the documented AMI creation process, then identify the AWS EC2 image variants needed for Ubuntu, Shiftfs, and Sysbox. Done means publishing usable AWS AMI(s) that let users create EC2 VMs with those components installed.
