    To find an image:

    Enter the following command:

    euca-describe-images
    

    The output displays all available images.

    IMAGE	emi-EC1410C1	centos-32/centos.5-3.x86.img.manifest.xml ↵
    admin	available	public 	x86_64	machine
    IMAGE	eki-822C1344	kernel-i386/vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-server.manifest.xml ↵
    admin	available	public 	x86_64	kernel

    admin	available	public 	x86_64	ramdisk
    

    Look for the image ID in the second column and write it down. The image ID starts with emi- . Once you find a suitable image to use, make sure you have a keypair to use.
