I have never used virt-install or Fedora 15 but, maybe you have to do the
same here like when installing RHEL6 using the iso image on a NFS server:
In the directory where the ISO is, you have to create a directory called
images and put the install.img from the DVD there. For RHEL6.1 the
dirlisting looks like this:

[root@blubb i386]# ll -R
.:
total 3496772
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root       4096 May 19 18:20 images
-rw-r--r--  1 root root        204 May 19 18:13 MD5SUMS
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  218103808 May 12 12:53 rhel-server-6.1-i386-boot.iso
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 3066486784 May 13 07:13 rhel-server-6.1-i386-dvd.iso
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  292583424 May 13 15:33
rhel-server-supplementary-6.1-i386-dvd.iso

./images:
total 132152
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 135184384 May 11 00:30 install.img

Just a guess but you could give it a try.
