[Bug 1171185] [NEW] Ubuntu installer appears to hang on "Installation von Ubuntu wird vorbereitet" screen

[Dan Kegel]

Public bug reported:

Downloaded ubuntu-13.04-beta2-desktop-amd64.iso (sha1sum cdb56f...), burned onto dvd,
booted on an i7 with 3 sata drives, intending to do a fresh install onto sda1.
Didn't get that far; I got past the "Try or install?" choice, and the installation language choice.
On the screen that checks whether you have 5.4 GB free space and an internet connection.
I clicked 'download updates during installation', then clicked the 'Weiter' (Continue) button.
Progress stopped.  The 'Beenden' (Quit) button is still active.
syslog shows it failed to download two packages:

According to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+package/nvidia-310,
only 310.44 is available.

Is beta2 too stale to install?
