The kickstart we use for aarch64 cloud [2] images is in the
fedora-kickstarts repo works. You'll need to use ksflatten to merge
the includes (in pykickstart package). There's also details and and
example here [3]

I'm not sure what your underlying host is and it only really matter
because Fedora-24 was the first to ship with the virtual uEFI firmware
for aarch64 and various tools needed to be updated for that. The
virt-install command I use with aarch64 is:

virt-install -n hostname --memory8 --memballoon virtio --disk
bus=virtio,path=volgroup/inventory_hostname --vcpus=4 -l
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/24//Everything/aarch64/os/
-x                  'net.ifnames=0 ksdevice=eth0 ks=ks_url
console=tty0 console=ttyAMA0  hostname=inventory_hostname
nameserver=8.8.8.8
ip=1.2.3.4::255.255.255.0:1.2.3.254:inventory_hostname:eth0:none
--network bridge=br0,model=virtio --autostart --noautoconsole

With the versions of virt-install in Fedora 24 and later (or RHEL 7.2
and later) you shouldn't need and of the bits about --boot. I used the
above to deploy a whole bunch of Fedora 24 VMs this week so it should
all be fine.
