Bug Description
After installation of Ubuntu Hardy JeOS and using the linux-image-virtual kernel, the ipv6 netfilter modules are not installed.
On other Hardy systems (for instance that run linux-image-
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/
However, linux-image-virtual lacks this directory, so ip6tables will not work.

I would also like to see IPv6 netfilter modules made available for 8.04 virtual kernels.
The situation is still currently this:

On hosts with non-virtual kernel, the listing contains directory netfilter but is otherwise similar.
