Thank you for the bug report. I had a look at the installation log
(syslog), and found this part which I believe is where the
installation get stuck:
Mar 21 22:04:11 in-target: cfengine:tjener:du-install: The LDAP server slapd seems
not to be running. Trying to start slapd.
Mar 21 22:04:11 in-target: cfengine:tjener:du-install: Starting OpenLDAP: slapd.

Scheduling for restart.

After this point, the ldap-debian-edu-install script exits without
stopping the services it started (slapd, bind, etc), and get stuck
waiting for these services to exit. The only running one in your case
was bind, and when it was restarted the file descriptor connecting d-i
to bind was closed and the installer could continue.
I have no idea why smbpasswd failed to connect to LDAP. Perhaps the
LDAP server is starting too slow, or smbpasswd is starting too fast.
