I have no bluetooth. Preliminary googling indicates that is probably an issue with some usb devices. I had an external drive, a mouse and a network dongle attached.

It is just stalled during the Installing the Upgrades phase - the last commands were "Creating device nodes"

Cancel will leave the system in a broken state.

What next?
