Johnlev''s respond:-  
It''s way simpler to export an unpacked ISO over NFS and install via
virt-install.

I am not sure how to manage on Solaris to get it working ?
Check for services status. Originally all disabled.

#svcs -a|grep nfs

Which services have to be enabled ?

# svcadm enable svc:/network/nfs/status:default
# svcadm enable svc:/network/nfs/server:default
# svcadm enable svc:/network/nfs/client:default

Maybe more or less ?
Would the rest be correct ?

# lofiadm -a /etc/xen/disks/snv76x86.iso
# mount -o ro -F hsfs /dev/lofi/1 /mnt
# share /mnt
# virt-install -n sps -p -r 1024 --nographics -f /export/xVM/sps.disk \
-l nfs:localhost:/mnt
Please,advise.

I am also not sure in "share" command it might be :-
# share -F nfs -o ro=localhost  /mnt
