Hi Justin,

I started with the SL6 ami noted in the github wiki page, added in the
required packages, then bundled a new ami using starcluster. I did
testing of the image, even from a clean system with a different key.
Somewhere along the way, the re-bundled image stopped pulling keys. I
had to add commands to rc.local to ensure that the root key was
fetched on image boot.

There is probably a better way to fetch the key, but I was in a hurry
to fix the problem. :)

Cheers.
