virt-install 
 --autostart
 --check all=on
 --name YOUR_VM_MACHINE
 --memory VM_MEMORY
 --vcpus VM_CPUs
 --os-type linux
 --os-variant ubuntu20.04
 --graphics none
 --wait TIME_TO_WAIT
 --network type=direct,source=eno111,source_mode=bridge,model=virtio
 --disk /path/libvirt/VM_STORAGE_POOL_NAME/YOUR_VM_MACHINE.qcow2
 --cdrom PATH_TO_INSTALLATION_MEDIA

Example: 

virt-install 
 --autostart
 --check all=on
 --name YOUR_VM_MACHINE
 --memory 8192
