Bug Description
Tried to install Gutsy using the alternate disk, and installed stuck for hours "Configuring apt - Scanning for mirror...", unplugging network cable did not help. Also, the system was overheating, probably processor was maxed out (no idea why), so I had to shut down.
Tried again next day and eventually went past "Scanning for mirror".
This is pretty bad, if I install from CD I would expect to be able to skip the mirror checking (and it should also time out on its own after a reasonable time). Also, while scanning for mirrors the processor should not max out.
You can also reproduce this by unplugging the network cable during installation, once your network connection is configured and the time is set (when is starts installing the basic system).
