I believe the problem is that initrd.gz doesn't contain necessary kernel modules for xvd? disks (xenserver virtual disk, eg. xvda), so this disk is not recognized during installation and failing partitioning. I think the missing one is xen-blk This might be relevant, if not duplicate: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=637784
