Bug#794410: debian-installer: Installer hangs during 'select and install software'

[guillaume <g71@laposte.net>]

thank you.

i had the same problem (installer always hangs during "select and 
install software" - around 10% of the progress)

my laptop: LENOVO ideapad 100
i install in legacy mode (mbr, not UEFI).

i tried with debian 8, 9 and 10: same problem.

so i read the comments, and in the BIOS i put:
Boot priority: "UEFI first"
OS Optimized Defaults: "Win8"

then i installed debian 9 (with mbr partitioning, as i always do), and 
it works.
