XCP 1.1 beta 48877 template Debian Squeeze 6.0 (32-bit) is not initializing with a vif for installation

Following this script for loading from a multi-arch DVD:

xe vm-install "template=Debian Squeeze 6.0 (32-bit)"
new-name-label=squeeze32-3

=> d7986c9d-bb9b-1706-4209-da42cac5e382

xe vbd-list userdevice=0 params=uuid --minimal
vm-uuid=d7986c9d-bb9b-1706-4209-da42cac5e382

=> 1089eb1a-420c-e490-a4b1-e9322c996760

xe vbd-param-set bootable=false
uuid=1089eb1a-420c-e490-a4b1-e9322c996760

xe vm-cd-add cd-name="SCSI 3:0:0:0" device=3 vm=squeeze32-3

xe vbd-list type=CD params=uuid --minimal
vm-uuid=d7986c9d-bb9b-1706-4209-da42cac5e382

=> 6e75e534-5895-d343-8d7d-4e32a6c6b7d5

xe vbd-param-set bootable=true
uuid=6e75e534-5895-d343-8d7d-4e32a6c6b7d5

xe vm-param-set other-config:install-repository=cdrom
uuid=d7986c9d-bb9b-1706-4209-da42cac5e382

xe vm-vif-list vm=squeeze32-3

Which returns nothing and when you start the VM it can't find an
Ethernet "card".

So I set up a vif:

xe vif-create device=0
network-uuid=8a85277f-a6b1-e887-04a0-3bb264ff4521
vm-uuid=d7986c9d-bb9b-1706-4209-da42cac5e382

=> 9a78a673-35ab-24b3-54a9-54ddfc632694

xe vm-start uuid=d7986c9d-bb9b-1706-4209-da42cac5e382

After which it had no trouble finding it, DHCP configuring it, etc.
