Currently the user-mode-linux package ships UML images (just one).

May I ask what's the status of your (as in kernel-team) work toward UML
images creation?
I tried to put some effort on that some time ago but nobody answered my
request for help[1] back then and AFAICT some modification is needed to
integrate UML build with the debian-kernel scripts.
Two major issues I found were make-kpkg creates linux-uml-foo.deb and
KPKG_ARCH not being used as argument for make-kpkg --arch.
