I am working on implementing network config & network .iso discovery

On s390x, when using virt-install, do you really want to configure
networking at all or do you want it to simply dhcp, self-find the right
iso, download that and attempt booting that?

Or do you still want interactive experience to ask for any chzdev
devices to activate, dhcp or static, ip address, gateway (? or just
always use default), dns (? or just always use gateway), vlan id,
http_proxy, url to iso?

Because it feels like the best experience is no questions asked, just
works. Which might be the case with DPM autoconfigured networking
devices & qemu autoconfigured devices.

Also virt-install can download & import boot off .iso. Have you tried to
point virt-install just at the live-server.iso? On s390x, I expect it to
be downloaded, added as a SCSI disk, and el-torito boot to be performed.
And if kernel params are needed, virt-install knows how to extract
kernels from iso, and it can then do direct kernel boot with kernel
params, which iso attached.
