Little How To to get an Virtual AP running on XBian.
I did NOT choose to install an DHCP Server on Xbian, as I just wanted to use the central one in my network.

1.) Install software

sudo apt-get update  
sudo apt-get install install hostapd hostap-utils iw bridge-utils

2.) Update hostapd

cd ~  
wget http://www.adafruit.com/downloads/adafruit_hostapd.zip  
unzip adafruit_hostapd.zip  
sudo mv /usr/sbin/hostapd /usr/sbin/hostapd.ORIG  
sudo mv hostapd /usr/sbin  
sudo chmod 755 /usr/sbin/hostapd

3.) Configure hostapd
sudo vi /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
