The Jessie release of Debian was built with bootstrap-vz (formerly called build-debian-cloud), and contains the CloudInit package.

Please note that a Marketplace image volume cannot be attached to another running instance (For example, to repair a broken /etc/fstab, or /etc/network/interfaces). This is a limitation of all Marketplace images, as described here: Official AWS documentation

Fun with cloud-init

You may wish to play with cloud-init, for example:

   1 #cloud-config
   2 package_update: true
   3 package_upgrade: true
   4 package_reboot_if_required: true
   5 packages:
   6 - pwgen
   7 - less
   8 locale: fr_FR.UTF-8
   9 ssh_authorized_keys:
  10 - ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nz....89dGp5 me@mykey1
  11 - ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nz....89dGp5 me@mykey2
  12 final_message: "The system is finally up, after $UPTIME seconds"
