With some other problems I had, I found out that xen-tools is deprecated and no longer developed. Debian is removing/has removed the package from testing. You're supposed to use libvirt now (which I haven't tried). I changed the package to xen-meta, because it's not necessary a bug in xen-create-i

For my understanding, why is this a bug in xen-tools? None of the Ubuntu machines I run as DomU (guest OS) have xen-tools installed, or anything Xen related. This is just about the kernel module being present in the initramfs (or it being included in the kernel) so that it recognizes /dev/xvda. -

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately this package was removed from Debian and Ubuntu because it was "obsolete, unsupported" and therefore I'm marking this as Invalid since I can't mark as Won't Fix. xen-tools is only supported in Ubuntu
