Yes, I've seen this before.

I suggest you first check the CD for errors.  There is an option for
that in the boot menu.

Also, I had a problem like that once where one CD-drive in a PC caused
this hanging of the installation procedure (and after waiting long
enough, of the PC), and the other drive in the same PC worked fine.
I'm not sure whether this was maybe caused by some dirt on the CD or
dirt on the cd-player's lens or something else.
