I followed this post to install webvirtcloud https://techviewleo.com/install-webvirtcloud-kvm-web-dashboard-on-ubuntu/, but I cannot see virtual instance by console, I think webvirtcloud didn't boot from cd-rom at all, how to install a os to instance? or what's problem?

my host is ubuntu22.04 server version,
and I want instance install ubuntu22.0 server version

it seems webvirtcloud's bug, I manual installed create a os by use virt-install command

virt-install
--name tiger_1
--description "ubuntu 22.04"
--os-type=Linux
--os-variant=ubuntu22.04
--ram=4096
--vcpus=2
--disk path=/data1/virt/image/tiger_1.img,bus=virtio,size=60
--network bridge=br0
--graphics none
--console pty,target_type=serial
--location /data1/virt/iso/ubuntu-22.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso,kernel=casper/vmlinuz,initrd=casper/initrd
--extra-args 'console=ttyS0,115200n8'
