The following examples worked for me (I have pre-allocated the images):

Debian testing:
sudo virt-install --name testing --ram 1024 --disk
/var/lib/libvirt/images/testing.qcow2,bus=virtio --location
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-s390x

Ubuntu Xenial:
sudo virt-install --name xenial --ram 1024 --disk
/var/lib/libvirt/images/xenial.qcow2,bus=virtio --location
http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/xenial/main/installer-s390x

I did that on a s390 box though, maybe there's some issue connected with
tcg...
