[Bug 684875] Re: Patch to Natty 2.6.37-virtual breaks non-EC2 users

Some notes on this which come up to me while looking at some other
issues. Currently the Natty images seem to contain two entries in
/etc/fstab that point to /dev/sd* devices. At first the entry for swap
was scaring me a bit as it did not have a nobootwait and my reboots were
not coming back. But it seems that was another issue with some old
kernel version which prevented the reboot command issued from within the
instance to fail. I just tested again with a recent kernel and that
seems to be ok (naturally without getting any swap mounted).

So for getting the mounts right, there may be some additional scripting
needed but at least it does not seem to cause any fatal boot fail when
the names change.
