Hi,
I can't speak for Cloud-Bio-Linux, but I've created a public AMI for
NERC/EOS Bio-Linux 8 based on the .ova file created by Tim Booth:
ami-2dee1954
We've also updated the .iso image to Bio-Linux 8.0.8:
https://www.bioinformatics.org/groups/?group_id=341
Release notes:
The Bio-Linux 8.0.8 point release contains an updated Linux kernel to
improve support for modern WiFi chipsets in particular and all the
packages have been updated. This release is mainly intended to improve
the use of Bio-Linux on a USB-stick or DVD. However, the 8.0.8 release
also has "mdadm" pre-installed to make installation and rescue of
Bio-Linux instances on "md" RAID simpler.
PLEASE NOTE: Bio-Linux 8.0.7 instances installed to hard disk do NOT
need to be updated using the Bio-Linux 8.0.8 point release. Bio-Linux is
normally configured for unattended upgrades of core packages and will be
upgraded automatically in situ. A manual update will be necessary to
upgrade ALL packages installed:
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
Changelog:
The Bio-Linux 8.0.8 point release was created using Tim Booth's
"build-bio-linux" scripts updated and modified by Will McCaffery and
Tony Travis:

HTH,
Tony.
