If anyone is prepared to explain and setup an Amazon based CPU mining farm for me,
then please let me know. I have an Amazon account and will pay a good bounty in
either BTC or DRK. I'm really keen to learn how to outsource the mining of DRK.
It would be interesting if a Amazon GPU mining farm is working with the darkcoin gpu miner and if it's profitable.
I've been playing with it all night - and I'm a little tired

Yes, I have had no problems getting it to run using Ubuntu 13.10, but I'm working out how to create an image and clone an instance to make the whole thing work faster.
There are a number of setup steps that I wrote some simple scripts for, and cloning would be the next step to make this run even faster. I'd say about 5 minutes per instance setup...
