When "First, we need to tell Debian to boot Xen instead of its usual kernel", dpkg-divert command should be split in two lines instead of only one:

< dpkg-divert --divert /etc/grub.d/08_linux_xen --rename /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen update-grub

Should be...

> dpkg-divert --divert /etc/grub.d/08_linux_xen --rename /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen
> update-grub
