my iMac rebooted to a stuck progress bar. Many command + r, other keyboard contortions and 2 hours with Apple support to no avail. Right before taking it in to Genius Bar, I tried once more and it finally allowed me to erase and replace from Time Machine back up. After 12 hours of transferring the back up all is well.

Now, I'm scared to try the update again.

Probably just bad luck the first time, huh? I've owned Macs for 20+ years and never had a problem like this.
