Thanks! Using -device virtio-gpu-pci -serial stdio works to me for launching
installation process with qemu graphics window. The following command works on
my side:

qemu-system-aarch64 \
-m 4096 -cpu cortex-a72 -smp 4 -M virt \
-serial stdio -device virtio-gpu-pci -device qemu-xhci -device usb-kbd \
