I've installed fedora versions as KVMs from f8 through f13 without
any problems using the DVD iso images as the cdrom file. (In both
32 and 64 bit flavors as well).

I have often had problems using an actual DVD and pointing at a
real DVD drive (which is why I gave up on that and use iso image
files on hard disk exclusively now when I install new KVMs).

Lately I've been using qcow2 file images as the hard disks for
the installs since I don't need great performance for disk I/O in
the VMs and qcow2 images are fairly compact.
