I didn't want to use an initrd from RedHat DVD. virt-install said that my system is not supporting any sort of virtualization. So I tried this config:
 
name='rhel6_cdrom'
kernel='/mnt/isolinux/vmlinuz'
ramdisk='/mnt/isolinux/initrd.img'
memory=256
disk=[
'tap:tapdisk:vhd:/root/install.img,sda,w'
]
vif=''
boot='cdrom'

anaconda launched successfully. But installer asked me for a proper vhd driver. Because of missing blkback driver in DVD's initrd it couldn't work in PV mode. I am curious if their is a way of adding xenblk in DVD's initrd for updating original ISO. John
