I've successfully installed SL7 into a VM on SL6.5 via virt-manager 
several times using all the Beta media - kickstart and non-kickstart.

I could proceed up to the message „creating domain …“ (and the new domain was added to the domain list in virt-manager). The vnc window opened, a message alike „connecting ….“ appeared and than the window got black and empty. Virt-manager indicated some activity for the domain, but after several seconds all activities ceased, nothing happened anymore. When I moved the mouse pointer over that black window, the pointer disappeared  (for the first seconds I could move the mouse pointer over that black window).
