| **Image name:** A simple name to identify the image. |
| **Image description:** A description for the image. |
| **No Reboot:** If you tick this, the Image may have issues, best to allow reboot if possible. |

| <color #ed1c24>WARNING!:</color> Now I know I go on about this, but the space you use, might not be free. Remember you get 30GB free. If you exceed that you start to pay per hour. Even if you do exceed it, you will finish this process in about 20-30 minutes, and can delete this AMI, so your costs again should be no more than a few pence, if anything at all. |
