There's already 4 public images on ec2 mentioning Asterisk in their
names so wouldn't it be easier to try out one of those rather than
install all the bits and pieces on a base Linux image?

An interesting paper on ec2 and Asterisk would be one that discusses

When I briefy ran up an instance at this time last year it actually
seemed ok.
