The plan for the scaleway image was to use their SIS (S3-alike)
storage. Unfortunately, at the time I wrote the image, the service was
closed to new accounts, and last as checked, still is. So not only
could I not write the image to use it (because I wouldn't have been
able to test it), but it would be unrealistic to make an image that
depends on that feature since most users would be no user accounts.

I'm kindof waiting for things to stabilize on their side to work again
on that image.
