For those interested to get past this stuck state to continue 11.10 installation can do following:

1. Edit the file /etc/init.d/cups, and add "exit 0" right in the beginning as first statement. This will bypass the failures in starting cups.
2. Find out PID of current running process of this script with "ps ax | grep init.d" and kill it with "kill -9 <PID>". After this, installation will continue.
3. Revert back step 1 once installation is done, and wait for cups related updates to arrive :)
