The format is the same as that accepted by Anaconda for network based
installs. For example a Fedora Core 6, x86_64 install over HTTP is
  http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/x86_64/os/
You can also use  ftp://  or nfs:  in the URLs. The contents of the
directory pointed to, should basically be a merge of all 5 CD ISOs
as seen by the HTTP location above.
In Fedora Core 5 & 6,  xenguest-install (now called virt-install in FC6 and
later) only supports installing of Fedora / RHEL distros. In F7 there is
now experimental support for SUSE style distros, again you'd point to the
top level directory of a SUSE install tree.

Dan.
