I'd manage to add the following settings to the domU.xml and it really
works.

     <disk type='block' device='cdrom'>
       <source dev='/dev/cdrom'/>
       <target dev='hdc'/>
       <readonly/>
     </disk>

I have not tested the below one in F7. It's available in F8.

Let the windows complete its first stage installation. Before starting 
for the second stage - Go to Virt-manager -> Details -> Hardware -> Add 
-> Storage device -> Normal disk partition /dev/cdrom / ISO -> Device 
Type - IDE cdrom.

Then boot the windows after that. It would boot from the guest hard disk 
and access the virtual cdrom to complete the rest of the installation.
