Bug Description

When an image is registered without a ramdisk eucalyptus presents 'ramdisk-id' in the directory listing for meta-data/ . On ec2, ramdisk-id is not present in the list.

ie, on ec2, in an instance without a ramdisk
$ wget "http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data" -O - -q | grep ramdisk-id || echo "not present"
not present

This is causing a failure in a crawl of the metadata service by boto1.9 .

Confirmed the fix in smoser's branch

Without the fix:
uec-publish-tarball lucid / euca-run-instance lucid -> FAIL
uec-publish-tarball karmic / euca-run-instance karmic -> PASS
uec-publish-tarball lucid / euca-run-instance lucid -> PASS with scary boot messages

With the fix:
uec-publish-tarball lucid / euca-run-instance lucid -> PASS
uec-publish-tarball karmic / euca-run-instance karmic -> PASS
uec-publish-tarball lucid / euca-run-instance lucid -> PASS with scary boot messages

I'll go ahead and commit that fix, leaving only bug 525989 (the default ramdisk / scary boot messages issue) to solve for beta1.
