It apparently passes all of Amazon's checks, however I can't ping the instance once it's fully set up. I decided to check the System Log and noticed this:

Both I think. Let me confirm...

$ ssh root@tp2
# su - padraig
$ ls -lH /dev/stderr
crw--w----. 1 root tty 136, 4 Mar  6 22:35 /dev/stderr
$ exit
# su padraig
$ ls -lH /dev/stderr
crw--w----. 1 root tty 136, 4 Mar  6 22:35 /dev/stderr

Note I don't think the device ownership or permissions have
changed from what was there in previous releases.
Just the `test -r` which doesn't seem to handle all cases.

cheers,
Pádraig.
