Public bug reported:

When you try to pass url of iso file as --disk parameter, error is
returned:

if you pass nonexistent url: Error validating install location: Could not find 
an installable distribution at 'http://foo.com/image.iso': The URL could not be 
accessed, maybe you mistyped
if you pass valid and existing url: ERROR Error validating install location: 
Could not find an installable distribution at ...

Proper behavior: XML is expected to be printed out.

$ virt-install --name bla --memory 10 --cdrom http://foo.com/file.iso --dry-run 
--print-xml --disk none
