It got solved. As it had passed the first progress bar the problem occurred during the reboot. So the progress bar concerning the reboot got stuck halfway. The progress bar concerning the installation had finished. After waiting more than an hour I rebooted. The reboot went fast and without any problems. I didn't even go into a secure reboot. Hope this might help other people running into the same problem.
