My Catalina installation is stuck for over 48 hours with “Estimating time remaining...”, the bar could not reach the "E" in "estimating". I restarted them with the power button, it started over. I upgrade it from Mojave, with iMac 21.5" 4K Retina 2017, 1 TB fusion drive.
I really don't know what to do now.
Does anybody face the similar problem?
iMac 21.5" 4K, macOS 10.14

You can try booting to safe boot mode and launch the installer from there:
Try a SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262
Takes noticeable longer to get to the login screen, does a 5-15 minute disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc.

My installation has not responded for 48 hours.
