I solved this problem, found a hint here: https://github.com/scaleway/initrd/tree/master/Linux 184.
Here is what I did:

Edit the “Tags” field in the server definition and add “INITRD_POST_SHELL=1” as one (or the only) tag.
Reboot the server
Wait until you get a shell
	#!/bin/sh

	# register a subdomain at https://www.duckdns.org/ to get your token
	# put 'hostname\|token' in the 'Host Name' field under DDNS
	# e.g. myhost\|abcdefgh-1234-5678-9876-f71b0ed7a7fe

	DDNS_HOSTNAME_FIELD=$(nvram get ddns_hostname_x)
	SUBDOMAIN=$(echo "$DDNS_HOSTNAME_FIELD" \| awk -F'\|' '{print $1}')
	TOKEN=$(echo "$DDNS_HOSTNAME_FIELD" \| awk -F'\|' '{print $2}')
	IPV4=$(nvram get wan0_ipaddr)
