Since the instance has come up in this case, can you ssh to the
instance and run chef-client with debug logging?

    chef-client -l debug

One possibility is that ohai is hanging, you can find out if this is
the case by running the following on the node:

    ohai -l debug

From the output it also looks like ssh came up surprisingly fast for a
t1.micro.  It could be that ssh isn't /actually/ up yet. How long have
you let knife-ec2 sit?  Does it ever timeout?  You also might try
running your server creation command with the `-VV` flag to get a bit
more info.

Cheers,

Steven
