The best way I did this way was install in a standalone XenServer
using XenCenter then export the VHD image. I believe that doing the
same procedure with console via console proxy system vm can be ok too
(but I haven't done this way - In XenServer we have a more "automated"
way to create machines).

You need to attach an ISO from secondary storage to the machine,
install then convert to template.
