Autoinstall Ubuntu Server 22.04: Block probing did not discover any disks big enough to support guided storage configuration

Context

After running the the below bash script to auto-install an Ubuntu server 22.04 on Qemu using virt-install, I get the error:

Block probing did not discover any disks big enough to support guided storage configuration.

Additionally, it appears to me that the user-data file in the seed.iso is not recognised by virt-install, as the terminal prompts me which language I would like to use for the server: even though (I believe) that is specified with the line locale: en_US in the file user-data.

Install Script

File: install.sh contains:

#!/bin/bash

USERNAME="$(whoami)"
# read -p "USERNAME=$USERNAME"
CURRENT_DIR="$PWD"
echo "CURRENT_DIR=$CURRENT_DIR"

Disk size 0

The Block probing.. error message is specified above, and I assume it occurs because the installation does not recognise any disks (with 30 gb, as specified with: DISK_SIZE=30 in: install.sh):

Question

How can I ensure the Ubuntu server installation recognises the autoinstall yaml and disk size of 30 gb?
