You don't need to "setup" cloud-init. All you need to do is to create
a USB-stick (or USB-stick image) with the configuration file.

That's not that difficult, we do that with JeOS. But while JeOS is
a multiple purpose operating system, where you normally do not start
many new machines at the same time, CaaSP is designed to start quickly
a huge amount of new machines, which then should be added to the cluster.
So letting the administrator go around and enter the root password
everywhere will not scale.
The feedback we got upfront was pretty clear: new nodes in the cluster
should not require any manual interaction beside pressing the power button.

Ok, if you installed with the DVD, you had to specify a root password
and you are now able to login on the administration node.
If you login, are there any error messages in /var/log/messages,
what does "docker ps" show?
