Firecracker development environment on AWS can be setup using bare metal instances. Follow these steps to create a bare metal instance.

1. If you don't already have an AWS account, create one: https://portal.aws.amazon.com/billing/signup.
1. Install AWS CLI: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-install.html

This step is not mandatory because you can start the instance from the AWS console. Also, it seems like you are not using the AWS cli anyway.

1. Login to the newly created instance:

```
ssh -i <ssh-key> ubunut@<public-ip>

ssh -i <ssh-key> ubunut@<public-ip>
ssh -i <ssh-key> ubuntu@<public-ip>

```

Now you can continue with the Firecracker [Getting Started](getting-started.md)
instructions to install and configure Firecracker in the new VM.

I would rephrase this sentence (i.e ...instructions to install and configure Firecracker in the new VM) since you are not installing Firecracker in a VM you are using Firecracker to spawn a microVM.

nit: do not use bare URL in markdown. One suggestion would be to re-write it as:

... create on using the [AWS portal](https://portal.aws.amazon.com/billing/signup).

or whatever else sounds better.

1. Login to AWS console: https://console.aws.amazon.com/console/home?region=us-east-1. Bare metal instances are only supported in `US East (N. Virginia)` region at this time. This region is preselected for you in the Console.
