Stefan,
Is there a reason to do this differently than in raring?
Basically, in raring we just added something like this:
+ *-generic)
+ # Starting with 12.10, -virtual was merged into -generic
+ dpkg --compare-versions ${ver_flavor%-generic} ge 3.4.0-3 && return
0;;
to the is_xen code.
That code is dumber (and less flexible) than it could be by design.
Originally, the list of "xen kernels" was created based on presense of
CONFIG_XEN_PRIVILEGED_GUEST=y in the boot config.
However, there were kernels (the -server in lucid, for example) that had
that setting, but did not actually support booting on EC2.
