I've been meaning to reply properly to this for too long, so here's,
attached, my currently working XML definition (sid's libvirt).
I think the only trick that's not available in Wheezy's virt-manager
(contrary to Jessie's one) to set this up is "removable='on'", but
IIRC it's properly documented.
What I usually do for installing/upgrading is:
1. connect the ISO I want as a DVD
2. start the VM
3. in the boot menu, choose the DVD
4. in the syslinux prompt, replace live-media=removable with
live-media=/dev/sr0
5. clone'n'{install,upgrade} onto the virtual USB device
6. shut down the VM
7. disconnect the ISO
Cheers,
