Debian tries to use ipv6 during installation, tries to send packages, but those won't be sent. While trying to send packages via ipv6, my installer hangs. The only workaround is to set ipv6.disable=1 in grub options. I guess, a potential user who runs into this problem may find a 'ipv4/ipv6' swtich before the "Configure network" step useful. Or the installer should show a message about misconfigured ipv6 on the router side when failing to send data over ipv6 multiple times. Or the program should switch to ipv4 after multiple fails while using ipv6. There is a plenthora of options, but the installer should not scare off a potential new user by showing him the stopped installer with no additional info.
