Question

Is there any way to try out the alpha of CoreOS on a droplet?

Posted August 30, 2013 3.2k views
CoreOS (http://coreos.com/) is a stripped down Linux distribution designed to host Docker (http://docker.io) containers. I'd like to try it out on a Digital Ocean VPS. Is there any way to get a droplet built with it?

I wonder if this could be done w/VirtualBox?

@Kamal, thank you, I voted.
@Pablo, the CoreOS documentation actually talks about VirtualBox deployments. That's an option.
