1. Create a vexxhost account

$ openstack flavor list | grep v1-standard-4
| 5cf64088-893b-46b5-9bb1-ee020277635d | v1-standard-4   |   4096 |  100 |         0 |     4 | True      |
$ openstack image list | grep -i container

$ jq . user_data.ign
{
  "ignition": {
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "config": {}
  },
  "storage": {},
  "systemd": {
    "units": [
      {
        "name": "docker.service",
        "enable": true,
        "dropins": [
          {
            "name": "10-overlay.conf",
            "contents": "[Service]\nEnvironmentFile=/etc/node.env\nEnvironment=\"DOCKER_OPTS=--storage-driver=overlay2\"\n"
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  },
  "networkd": {},
  "passwd": {}
}
$ nova boot \
  --image 90f57210-9354-4a2f-852e-d844237fbbad \

I modified locally the contents of grub.cfg on a local coreos_production_openstack_image.img qcow image to have the following parameters:

 systemd.journald.forward_to_console=true coreos.autologin=tty1 coreos.autologin=ttyS0

I updated the kernel output here: https://gist.github.com/s-urbaniak/8108dfa3269da858c489f8cdf38d6461#file-gistfile1-txt

Bonus point: since we have coreos.autologin set, one can have a working VNC terminal:

fwiw here is something I catched, while the machine was booting:

Closing this, since it sounds like the above PRs fixed it.

@dm0- yes, indeed, the bug is fixed, thanks.
