I have an Amazon EC2 instance which according to the management console has no EBS volumes attached to it. Yet, when I run df
I see /dev/sda1
and \dev\sda2
both are "disk"s. What are they? Is one the instance-store
? If so then what is the other?
Thanks.

/dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 are the local ephemeral storage disks
If you look here http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/instance-storage-concepts.html you'll see the various details about what's mounted where.
