Hi,

When loading the AMI from AWS Marketplace, I get the following error when the machine tries to boot:

Enter 'maint' for boot menu.

Booting PANOS (sysroot0) after 5 seconds...

Looks like AWS AMI deployment issue rather than PA. Did you lunch instance properly (add storage etc) followed by the admin guide:
