I just tried to create a CentOS 7 VM on a CentOS 6 host, but it crashes to the

with the (virtual) graphics controller, but I am not sure.

It looks like you just need to specify the location of the stage2 installer.  The vmlinuz/initrd don't have any UI, they're just the stage1 boot component.  The installation UI is in stage2, and its location is a required option.  See isolinux/isolinux.cfg of the boot media for working examples, or https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/installation_guide/chap-anaconda-boot-options for documentation.
