Shutdown the computer by any means including the Power Button.

Disconnect all external drives.

Connect to charger.

Restart the computer and Immediately Hold the SHIFT key and only release the key once the Apple Logo appears.

This is Safe Mode and may or may not allow the upgrade process to complete.
