You don't need 0.17 to use the scripts mentioned in the EC2 wiki page.
Just grab contrib/ec2 from the 0.17.0 branch.
as for images, you will need to update the image/create-hadoop-remote
bash script to download and install hbase.
and update hadoop-init to start it with the proper properties.
once you look at these scripts, it should be fairly obvious what you
need to do.
then just run 'create-image' command to stuff this new image into one
of your buckets.
enjoy

Hi all,
I'm about to embark on a mystical journey through hosted web-services
with my trusted friend hbase. Here are some questions for my fellow
travelers:
1) Has anyone done this before? If so, what lifesaving tips can you
offer?
2) Should I attempt to build an hdfs out of ec2 persistent storage, or
just use S3?
3) How many images will I need? Just one, or master/slave?
4) What version of hadoop/hbase should I use? (The hadoop/ec2
instructions[1] seem to favor the unreleased 0.17, but there doesn't
seem to be a public image with 0.17 at the ready)
Thanks in advance for any advice, I'm gearing up for quite a trip :)
