I have had this problem since I upgraded Ubuntu to 14.10, and have recently 
come to the conclusion that the problem probably is entropy.

A test has shown that the entropy pool always is extremely low (about 1000 with 
heavy disk access, less than 800 otherwise)

I have tried to generate more entropy by starting programs with heavy disk or 
net acces, and fidling with the mouse, but the installation still hangs at 76%, 
and after a short while everything on the desktop freezes, even the mouse.

The only way to get out of it is a long press on the power button.

These symptoms do not sound like it has anything at all to do with entropy. I don't know where you could have gotten that idea.

The symptoms sound more like what would happen if there was too much I/O, too many programs running, too much memory used, and perhaps too much swap space: the system would start swapping so heavily it would become totally unresponsive.
