in my case,

# virt-install --network bridge:br0 --name kfat --ram=2048 --vcpus=2  \
    --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/kfat.img,size=16,cache=writeback \
    --cdrom=/home/downloads/CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso

worked.

the 'cache=writeback' fixed it, the fundamental problem was, 
/var/lib/libvirt/images is XFS on a SSD so is using 4096 byte sectors, 
and kvm has an impedance mismatch with that.
