Comment 19 for bug 1331214

I think an easy short-term fix could be simply to fall back onto the helper scripts from the AMT power template (perhaps detecting in there whether we are using AMT 9.0 or above). I don't think the dependency on universe should be a showstopper for that (we could add it as a Suggests and release-note the fact that the user needs to install those packages, with a UI hint as an added bonus if we have time for it).

If AMT becomes something which is used in more and more "real server hardware" we could look to making a native interface, but I don't really think that's the case at the moment.
