It's been 20hours since this happened. And the installation stuck here. Am I missing anything? Kindly guide me.

It depends; this installation process takes a lot of memory, a lot of disk space, and a lot of processing cores (when available). If you have a low enough memory overhead, you might end up in a situation where it starts swapping, which would slow it way down and 20+ hours could be a real possibility. The I/O library and SRAM library in particular are very slow compared to the other libraries. How much memory and disk space do you have, and how many processor cores? If your resources are limited, you might consider one of the pre-compiled versions like "volare" (based on containers).
