So here's an update.  It's been left alone all weekend.  I came to it this morning and it's still not to the package selection screen yet; at the moment, it's "unpacking popularity-contest."  

Although it seems unlikely that the USB key is to blame, I'm going to try a CD-ROM image.

I started out in text mode.  Then I read somewhere of someone having luck in graphical mode.  Either way is abysmal.
