It's actually entirely safe to kill the dpkg-preconfigure process, but
of course it should not be hanging.

To try to track down why it's hanging I'd probably need some serious
logs. Like the logs you get from booting the installer with 
"install DEBCONF_DEBUG=5" , which will end up in /var/log/installer in the
installed system.
