Actually the following works pretty well for getting to the old-style installer on s390x.
Instead of a location to the install-dir, just hand it an ISO (can also be a local file).

virt-install --name ubuntu20-guest1 --memory 4096 --vcpus 4 --disk "size=4" --cdrom http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/focal-server-s390x.iso --network "network=default"

And for the new installer:
virt-install --name ubuntu20-guest1 --memory 4096 --vcpus 4 --disk "size=4" --cdrom http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-live/current/focal-live-server-s390x.iso --network "network=default"

P.S. I haven't tried the latter recently, but I know JFH is filing and pushing on related fixes.
Never the less this should solve your issue in case the path as published can't be renamed back.
