CentOS 7 AMI

This is the shell script used to build the Bashton CentOS 7 AMIs we have made publicly available. To use, start a RHEL7 or CentOS 7 instance, attach a blank EBS volume at /dev/xvdb and the script will do the rest.

If you just want to run the images, or modify using Packer, you can find AMI ids at https://www.bashton.com/blog/2017/centos-7.3-ami/

Differences from official CentOS marketplace AMI

• Uses gpt partitioning - supports root volumes over 2TB
