Hi,

My guess is that installation failed!

Or at least, it failed to be really installed on the hard disk the reboot try to boot from.
During the Anaconda destination selection, double check to ensure the destination is really the storage provisioned while preparing the installation from virt-manager, and that the boot order before rebooting is correct.
