OSX update -> loop -> cancel OSX update?

Tried to update OSX on old iMac (should not have done that but OSX suggested me to do so) and now I'm stuck in a loop with error.


Can start in safe mode but how to cancel the OSX update? If I restart machine tries to install once again.

iMac, macOS 10.13
