Currently this is hardcoded in koan's source to /var/lib/virtimages.  

Adding a /var/lib/virtimages directory symlink in your kickstart's %post 
when provisioning the dom0's might be a good idea, if you wanted to use 
storage not on /var.    Or virtimages could be a mount point... either way.

I'll look into adding some options for this.
