# create a directory for disk image

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
mkdir -p /var/kvm/images
# create a disk image

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
qemu-img create -f qcow2 /var/kvm/images/debian9.img 10G
root@dlp ~(keystone)#
virsh net-start default

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
virt-install \
--name debian9 \
--ram 2048 \
--disk path=/var/kvm/images/debian9.img,format=qcow2 \
--vcpus 2 \
--os-type linux \
--os-variant debian9 \
--network network=default \
--graphics none \
--console pty,target_type=serial \
--location 'http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/Linux/debian/dists/stretch/main/installer-amd64/' \
--extra-args 'console=ttyS0,115200n8 serial'
Starting install...    
# installation starts
# after finishing installation, back to KVM Host and shutdown VM

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
virsh shutdown debian9
# mount the disk image of the VM

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
guestmount -d debian9 -i /mnt
# enable getty@ttyS0.service

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
ln -s /mnt/lib/systemd/system/getty@.service /mnt/etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@ttyS0.service

# unmount and start

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
umount /mnt

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
virsh start debian9 --console
# configure some settings for openstack instance on VM

[4] By the way, if you got an image from internet, it's OK to simply add it like follows.
root@dlp ~(keystone)#
wget http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/16.04/release/ubuntu-16.04-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img -P /var/kvm/images
root@dlp ~(keystone)#
openstack image create "Ubuntu1604" --file /var/kvm/images/ubuntu-16.04-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img --disk-format qcow2 --container-format bare --public
