There isn't any one line replacement since the virt-image format is
deprecated. But the virt-image.xml file doesn't contain much info... open it
with a text editor and convert it to a virt-install invocation like

virt-install --name $NAME --memory $RAM --os-variant $OS --disk $DISK1 --disk
$DISK2 ...
