It hates me.

Command line:
xen-create-image --hostname=infra --lvm=vg1 --bridge=xenbr1 --ip=172.16.148.4 
--netmask=255.255.255.0 --mac=11:22:33:16:48:04 --arch=amd64 
--partitions=/home/dkoch/infra.part --memory=512M --pygrub --force --cache=no
with or without: --install-method=cdebootstrap (default=debootstrap)

Partitions are 300MB ext2 for /boot, 9.7G for /, no swap.

Get the following errors:

It almost sounds like it's trying to execute 64-bit binaries in 32-bit mode
or vice-versa. Some of the "Exec format error" messages are on scripts.

Debootstrap claims it can do cross-architecture installs.
