We do not recommend to use virt-install to create Ubuntu guest
instances.

Instead, mirror and launch Ubuntu Cloud Image, with a cloud config drive
to customize the instances.

You can find ready made Ubuntu Cloud Images for s390x at https://cloud-
images.ubuntu.com/xenial/current/ note they are regularly refreshed to
boot with latest kernel, SRU and security fixes.

You can customize the instances as needed using cloud-config stanzas
http://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/examples.html

And one can trivially provide config-drive to the virtual machine using
e.g. NoCloud
http://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources/nocloud.html

Have you considered using cloud-images to simply boot and initialize
customized Xenial guests? It will complete provision much faster than
d-i based methods.
