I can't boot from ISO as the server is a non managed one (i.e I don't have access to the upper "layer"). I have only access to the OS in the cloud. The OS is already installed when I take hand on the server. That is my worry.
Which cloud is this?
swiss one: infomaniak.com
If you have write access to the serial console and the cloud supports PXE booting, then you should be able to use the live PXE path and then follow the same coreos-installer path as Dusty mentioned.
I have access to the serial console, so I will follow this path.
Thank you all for your answers.
If you don't have write access to the serial console, you could still set up all the kargs in the PXE config so that the PXE boot automatically installs the metal image. See the coreos.inst args documented at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/bare-metal/#_installing_f... (and for the full documentation on those: https://github.com/coreos/coreos-installer/#kernel-command-line-options-for-...).
