You do not need to pass parameters through smbios.
When you define the image using XML create a cdrom image.
The cdrom image must contain meta_data.json and network_data.json files.
The following is the ansible snippet I use to create the CD image.
genisoimage -output {{ cloud_init_iso_dir }
Thanks Pavel! Time to update the host to debian 10. I didn't realize it was

Thanks for looking into it deeply. I will watch out for python 3, but it
probably won't cause me much trouble and will feel good to get up to date.
Kind regards
