What did you do during network configuration? As you have no network card, I assume you selected "do not configure network at this time"; correct? If you _did_ configure a network, that could well explain the problems while setting up ifupdown. > Tried it 3 times, same result all the time: the keyboard freezes in > "installing the base system" and you are stuck: use the red button. Are you sure the system is completely frozen? Can you, for example still switch to VT2 (using alt-F2) or VT3 or VT4. We could probably analyze this further if we had the logs for the installation (messages and syslog in /var/log). Or try switching to VT3 during base installation and watch out for messages there.
