Public bug reported:

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).
