 Description   

this doc is about how to set up mongo on EC2
http://docs.mongodb.org/ecosystem/platforms/amazon-ec2/

It says to do this
sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdf

but when I do that I get
[ec2-user@ip-172-31-30-115 ~]$ sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdf
mke2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Could not stat /dev/sdf — No such file or directory

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?
[ec2-user@ip-172-31-30-115 ~]$

I do have this
brw-rw----. 1 root disk 202, 65 Sep 19 03:37 xvde1

Can that doc be updated? Is there a better guide to setting up (Free version Amazon) with Mongo?
