The hang is most likely during the postinstall phase, because some BLODA is preventing the postinstall scripts from running. No postinstall = no /etc/profile, which means PATH doesn't get set to include /bin, which means normal commands don't work and only shell builtins function. No postinstall/profile also means /bin/bash doesn't get copied to /bin/sh which means any script with a #!/bin/sh fails to run also.
