On the debian box do as root or with sudo:
cd /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/
wget http://todddeshane.net/tmp/hardy
Next, run your xen-create-image command again
Enjoy.

Yes you could use virtual box or another Ubuntu box and install
debootstrap if necessary too.

This is a xen users list though, for some information on virtual box see:
http://www.virtualbox.org/

Hope that helps,
Cheers,
Todd
