Public bug reported:

When attempting to do a netboot install of 11.04 in a paravirtualized
Xen domU, the xen-netfront kernel module is not loaded by default. It
has to be loaded manually during the install process and the 'detect
network cards' part of the install re-run before proceeding.

Additionally, after install is complete the new domU will fail to boot
properly, because the xen-blkfront kernel module is not loaded by
default. This has to be done manually, and xen-blkfront added to /etc
/initramfs-tools/modules and update-initramfs -u run. After this, the
domU will work as expected.
