I created my first CoreOS droplet, put my ssh public key there.
When I went to Console Access from my account, it asked for login, entered root, then it asked for password. I don’t have a password because I created the droplet with SSH key.
Same thing happened when trying to ssh from my local machine.
I even tried to destroy and recreate the droplet, but it doesn’t help.
Any thought?
Thanks.
