Package: ganeti                                                                        
Version: 1.2.6-3                                                                       
Severity: normal                                                                       

*** Please type your report below this line ***

after add instance with:
gnt-instance add -n node -t plain -s 42g --swap-size=42g -o debootstrap -m 
1024M -b eth0 --hvm-acpi=true --hvm-disk-type=ioemu --hvm-pae=true --hvm-
cdrom-image-path=/srv/ganeti/iso/image.iso xserv

ganeti didn't report error, but default kernel path for hvm in ganeti is:
/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader

In lenny:
/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/boot/hvmloader 

Modify instance with 
gnt-instance modify --kernel=/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/boot/hvmloader
didn't resolve problem (but in /var/lib/ganeti/config.data
ganeti put proper path), in /var/log/ganeti/node-daemon.log is:
Error: Kernel image does not exist: /usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader


Workaround is simple - do symbolic link for xen
