What is the install CD-ROM/ISO or URL? This is the path to a Fedora installation tree in the format used by anaconda. NFS, FTP, and HTTP locations are all supported. Examples include:

- ftp://my.ftp.server.com/path/to/tree

I strongly recommend you using virt-manager for virtual machine management. It's easy to use and has all required options for creating virtual machines with different media including CD/DVD and ISO images.
Thanks, I'll try that approach....
