I have a coreos_production_rackspace_image running on opennebula 4.6.2 under a xen hypervisor which I can connect to via ssh from the coomand line but I cannot login to the running coreos vm because I don't know how to setup a password via cloud-init.

In opennebula there is a was to pass ssh keys to a vM via a context variable: "SSH_PUBLIC_KEY="ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAA....." but this does not allow me to login (not sure why). I have even uploaded a cloud-init file to the "files & Kernals" which I pass to the vm via a context variable to the vm template and I still cannot login.

Opennebula does have a concept of cloud-init, but it says it sets up the root password and not the core user password. http://docs.opennebula.org/4.6/user/virtual_machine_setup/cloud-init.html

In the CoreOS AWS EC2 images, openssh is setup and asks which keypair you want to use to login. So, maybe you should switch to Amazon from Rackspace.

I've just updated a CoreOS image to the OpenNebula Marketplace:

The hypervisor is KVM, not Xen, though.
