I install Debian 10 on a lenovo ideapad 100 laptop (old) in UEFI with a graphical installation. The bootloader hung at the “selection and installation of software” stage, namely “discover (amd64) is installed”.

Install with debootstrap from a live system, where you will have full control over what happens.

Read the installation documentation
https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/
Switch to another virtual console and see the installer output.

To switch to another console, you also need to use the Ctrl key, just like in the X Window System. For example, to switch to VT2 (the first command line shell for debugging), use: Ctrl+Left Alt+F2. The GUI installer itself runs on VT5, so you can use Left Alt+F5 to switch back.
