I am trying again, and this time it didn't hang as long.  It took 10 
minutes to show something new after the screen, like the one in your 
screen shot.
I've been stuck at

Installing the  base system
6% retrieving ntpdate...

for about 20 minutes... so I guess I will just hang out and see if it 
ends up working or not.
Either way... somehow I got further (not sure what I did differently... 
except have different apps running while it is)
