there is a test image ( alpha1 grade.. ) at
http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/devel/CentOS-7-Atomic-DockerHost-20140826_02.qcow2.xz

it bootstraps instance auth/metadata via cloud-init, so you will need to
configdrive

CentOS-7-Atomic-DockerHost-20140826_02.qcow2.xz

The issue is that Atomic boots with syslinux, and has partitioned up the

back to just using the blockdevice as one filesystem.
