This morning I tried to finish the setup but the process is now
stalled in Configuration > Hostname. It is at the last step "Updating
/etc/resolv.conf" at 100% but all buttons are disabled. The cursor is
busy but nothing is happening.

On the previous configuration screen I selected "Use DHCP" and
un-selected update /etc/resolv.conf


Update: I restarted the Box and was extremely pleased to see that OS
detected the failed installation and was able to resume the process
where it stopped. I changed the option to update /etc/resolv.conf and
this time it worked.

But then I got to the Online Update step. The test download of the
release notes was successful but it failed to find host
download.opensuse.org to download update. I retried but to no avail.

That would almost certainly have to be a DNS problem on your side. If
there was any kind of global issue with download.opensuse.org, we would
have heard this many more times.

After rebooting once again the process was resumed and this time I did
not get the option to do an online update. It went straight to login
screen after updating /etc/resolv.conf.

In the end I think I have a working system however these glitches are
annoying.

I too did a NET+http install last night, on a 6Mbps downstream line;
started around 20:00, and took a couple of hours I think. It finished
before I went to bed. No hiccups of any kind.
