This is how I tested :
1. Download - http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/isos/ppc64le/CentOS-7-AltArch-ppc64le-NetInstall-1511.iso to /root
2. Save the content from https://da.gd/NLuP to /root/centos-7ppc64le.ks
3. Loop mount /root/CentOS-7-AltArch-ppc64le-NetInstall-1511.iso to /mnt/cdrom
4. Then start the install by following command:
/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-install -n centos_test_vm -r 1024 --noreboot --noautoconsole --debug --graphics none --initrd-inject /root/centos-7ppc64le.ks --disk path=/var/tmp/diskjJxxyA.img,format=raw --disk path=/root/CentOS-7-AltArch-ppc64le-NetInstall-1511.iso,device=cdrom,readonly=on,shareable=on --extra-args ks=file:/centos-7ppc64le.ks inst.cmdline stage2=live:CDLABEL=CentOS_AltArch_7_ppc64le --location /mnt/cdrom --channel tcp,host=127.0.0.1:33696,mode=connect,target_type=virtio,name=org.fedoraproject.anaconda.log.0

Can you give me an example public URL to test with?
Thanks,
