Okay, to answer my own question, I think I found a way: http://community.citrix.com/display/xs/Configuring+CentOS+5.5+Guests+on+XenServer+5.5+and+5.6
Yes, the above are instructions for CentOS, but it should be applicable for Ubuntu Maverick also; the script given is customizable enough, and clear instructions on changing the repo address is also given. I'll experiment on an unused XenServer host tomorrow, and report back here. (And that begs a question: Just in case I am successful, may I create an Ubuntu Wiki article explaining the how's?)
