Hi @moul,

I have build an image with your with this makefile containing a newer version of coreos 1068.8.0 (current stable). The image is looking fine if I look into it in the rescue mode, however I don't manage to boot it.

In the scaleway forum I can read that there are some workarounds ( https://community.online.net/t/starting-coreos-on-vc1/2466/2 )

Any hints what I can do to make the image bootable and reboot save? pressing ctrl+b during the pxe boot is not a good option because then the server could not reboot unattended.

Thanks for #2,

Any hints what I can do to make the image bootable and reboot save?

We are working to get CoreOS booting natively on Scaleway. It requires some changes in the boot mechanism; so sadly, you won't be able to help on this part @quentinperez, any update about the boot enhancements ?

@moul It would be also nice, if one could specify additional cmdline params for /proc/cmdline on ScaleWay so that one could bootstrap CoreOS using cloud-init hosted on a different machine.

Bare Metal - Use the coreos.config.url kernel parameter to provide a URL to the configuration. The URL can use the http:// scheme to specify a remote config or the oem:// scheme to specify a local config, rooted in /usr/share/oem.

Or add a ScaleWay OEM
