Ryan; Chris:

I just added the ability to launch instances into non-default VPCs to CloudLaunch. This is live on https://launch.usegalaxy.org/, under Advanced startup options. Feel free to give it a shot and let me know if you encounter any issues.

The instances get launched here: https://github.com/galaxyproject/cloudman/blob/master/cm/clouds/ec2.py#L434

I guess you're talking about the `instance_profile_name` parameter from boto's run_instances method (https://github.com/boto/boto/blob/develop/boto/ec2/connection.py#L738)?

We actually have galaxy running within a VPC now. The problem we're running into is that when ec2 instances get created they don't have an I_am profile attached to them so they can't get access to S3 resources. This should just be a parameter past to AWS when the instances get created to attach the Iam profile. I just need to know where the code for creating ec2 instances is and I can test it out.
