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

Here is what I did:

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

# Nginx can serve FLV/MP4 files by pseudo-streaming way without any specific media-server software. 
# To do the custom build we use 2 modules: --with-http_secure_link_module --with-http_flv_module
# This module "secure-link" helps you to protect links from stealing away.
