For some reason, the lucid AMIs have no ramdisk:
andreas@nsn2:~$ ec2-describe-images --region eu-west-1 ami-cf4d67bb
IMAGE ami-cf4d67bb 099720109477/ubuntu-images/ubuntu-lucid-10.04-i386-server-20100427.1 099720109477 available public i386 machine aki-c34d67b7 instance-store
Compare with the karmic AMI, for example:
andreas@nsn2:~$ ec2-describe-images --region eu-west-1 ami-9a2a01ee
IMAGE ami-9a2a01ee ubuntu-images-eu/ubuntu-karmic-9.10-amd64-server-20091027.1.manifest.xml 099720109477 available public x86_64 machine aki-a22a01d6 ari-ac2a01d8 instance-store
This breaks the client, because it gets a 404 when trying to get the ramdisk id:
root@ip-10-130-34-191:~# curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/ramdisk-id

Here is a list of what is available at that url:
root@ip-10-130-34-191:~# curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/ ; echo

This is the backtrace the client gets:

Scott, I think you're probably the right person to assign this to.
If not, please unassign.
