first try manually. boot into initramfs (keyboard hold SHIFT or "rescue" in cmdline) and try calling it manually.

and the specially prepared initramfs file is no big deal. just edit /etc/xbian-initramfs/update-initramfs.sh and anywhere you see "copy_with_libs …." put "copy_with_libs /usr/sbin/debootstrap" . then run "sudo xbian-update-initramfs". it will update initramfs by adding debootstrap binary and all linked libraries.

finally - startupscript can be located on the debootstrap minimal boot disk (initramfs) or can be always up-to-date downloaded from remote site ...
