Indeed, the first steps are identical to an installation.

Too bad : the rescue screen was the next step.

It appears that vgimportclone is defined as a bash script (1st line
contains #!/bin/bash) but bash is not included in the Debian installer.
I don't know if this script really requires bash or could be run with
the installer's shell, ash. In the latter case, just modify the script
header or create a symlink /bin/bash pointing to sh or ash.

The Debian installer have them all.
