Investigate why the cloud image isn't working at Digital Ocean
I just tried uploading the cloud image to Digital Ocean as a [custom image](https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/images/custom-images/) and it didn't work :/. The VM boots but it isn't pingable. --- Digital Ocean is providing the relevant metadata as a [config drive](https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources/configdrive.html). `cloud-init` expects the metadata to be in [OpenStack format](https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/user/metadata.html#openstack-format-metadata) which it isn't. Example: ```json openstack/latest/network_data.json { "links": [ { "ethernet_mac_address": "72:71:cc:2f:9d:20", "id": "interface-public", "mtu": 1500, "type": "phy" }, { "ethernet_mac_address": "4e:23:ee:79:8f:b7", "id": "interface-private", "mtu": 1500, "type": "phy" } ], "networks": [ { "id": "public-ipv4", "link": "interface-public", "neutron_network_id": "7d9cd798-2dc0-502f-41ca-e04b552ddffd", "type": "ipv4-dhcp" }, { "id": "private-ipv4", "link": "interface-private", "neutron_network_id": "95cb2248-41ef-512c-41a8-c8d6bc054272", "type": "ipv4-dhcp" } ] } ``` Type should be `ipv4_dhcp` not `ipv4-dhcp`. `ipv4-dhcp` isn't valid as documented in the [OpenStack schema](https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/4f69d8e6c7b091c902409f6761512ec95d7c88de/doc/api_schemas/network_data.json#L277).
