Yes.. pull down the latest adk. You can specify an appliance as follows:

test:
     kickstart: "test.ks"
     memory: "512"
     cpus: "1"
     version: "1"
     checksum: True
     s3bucket: mahBucket
     ec2kernel: testkernel
     ec2ramdisk: testrd

The ex2kerle and ramdisk only effect the ec2bundle. Is there something 
else it should hit?
