If I'm not mistaken, /bin/sh in etch points to dash, not bash by
default. In or out of posix invocation, dash isn't smart enough to parse
the hotplug (and other) back end bourne scripts Xen uses, it lacks a
significant number of builtins.

Can you verify that the symbolic link /bin/sh points to /bin/bash and
try again?

Best,
