Many things can make it not work. 




I just wanted to update in this thread (as others have suggested to use xm create type command options which I will be testing in short while)   it appears that the when the options of creating guest OS from local ISO and PXE are disabled in virt-manager when you create a guest on a non VT machine and only thing available to you is installing via  an http URL based where you expect to mount the install ISO and then doing an http install.This trick works for CentOS/RedHat systems but the same does not work with Debian/Ubuntu based systems and it appears I might need to create a local mirror as explained here


because I do see in apache logs the requests for installation reaching 
here is the apache log on host machine
