Frank pointed out that virt-install uses:

--location http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/focal/main/installer-s390x

Meaning, it is sensitive to "/images/" changing to "/legacy-images/".

However, instead of changing images to legacy-images, we could instead change "installer-" prefix to "legacy-installer-".

The change of URL is achieved, yet virt-install would then work with like:

--location http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/focal/main/legacy-installer-s390x

which strikes a better balance of incompatibility & friction.
