Seem like there is no such option, or could my option place it incorrectly ?

Are you sure that you're running the latest virt-install -- because latest does have that option. If you refer to the manpages of the latest version:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=python-virtinst.git;a=blob;f=man/en/virt-...
I recommend you update your virt-install version in order to be able to use that option, otherwise, you might be limited in your options. You could add a command that sets it manually by connecting to qemu (might be more complicated). If it's the same password, I think you could leave it in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf

Let me know if this helps.

You are right, there is such option, may i know what version of virt-install you are running ? I am using root@cloudnode2:~/new# virt-install --version 0.500.1 root@cloudnode2:~/new# Regards, Peter
