What kind of guests are you installing?  If CentOS, and you can get the console at all, use the vnc installation method and bring up the VNC GUI on a workstation.  Also see the virt-install man page and the --vnc command-line option.

The upstream Beta 6.2 docs may have some information that might help you, assuming it doesn't require beta 6.2 packages to do it....

Hope that helps.
