Still trying to get a single server hosted engine setup running at Hetzner.de...

If I use the HE Appliance and do not use cloud-init the VM launches but can not be accessed.

          Make a selection from the options below:
          (1) Continue setup - oVirt-Engine installation is ready and ovirt-engine service is up
          (2) Abort setup
          (3) Power off and restart the VM
          (4) Destroy VM and abort setup

At this point I can access the VM via vnc but am unable to login.

Is root login possible in this situation?
