Odd ec2 behavior - volumes attached to bootstrap node.

[John Meinel]

Notice that volume which is attached is a *new* volume. The reason is
because we are booting the images that use elastic block storage,
rather than only local temp files.
So yes, when you create new instances, you will see new volumes that
are mounted automatically. When those instances are destroyed, it will
delete those volumes.
