I struggled to connect to the console of a newly created VM. The VM was created using Oracle VM Manager (OVMM) and despite efforts to install the required packages I could not use the console button in the Manager interface.

Just a simple trick to import ISO files to the repository using Oracle VM Manager (OVMM). The import function supports imports through protocols http, https and ftp. If you want to do this in the supported way you can use a simple web server to serve the ISO files for you.
