Yes, that is possible at this stage. Use the following command to
finish the remaining stages:

./utils/setup.php --index --index-noanalyse --create-search-indices

NB: indexing seems to be very slow for a 32GB VM. Is it possible
that you gave the VM only a single CPU? Indexing can be nicely parallized,
the more CPUs the better.
