adds ami name when registering s3-based ami #109

Closed sonnysideup closed 10 years ago

sonnysideup commented 10 years ago

The build was creating instance-store AMIs without a name, which is less than optimal.

andsens commented 10 years ago

Does it actually work? I was annoyed by that as well, but the boto documentation says:

name (string) – The name of the AMI. Valid only for EBS-based images.

I saw that in the boto docs as well, but I tried it and it does work.

I've created several AMIs before, both EBS and instance-store based, and regardless of the type you can always add a name when registering the new AMI. Conceptually, I think this make sense.

Totally forgot to merge this one. Sorry.
