I upgraded macbook pro to El Capitan 10.11.2 from the earlier El capitan version today and it crashed after reboot.
The macbook now hangs with the apple icon and the start scale around half.
Please help on how to fix this. I just want to revoke the last upgrade.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Have you tried doing a safe boot by holding down the Shift key at power on?
yes, same result. hangs in the apple boot logo.
Same situation. Apple software quality makes me evil for the past 2 years 😟

Tried no luck, same result, hangs.
Same here with MBP. Tried multiple restarts, then with shift or option held down. I managed to get it to load again eventually, but update still hasn't completed. Don't really want to risk it again. Didn't try zapping the PRAM or anything else. It's a work machine that is 'managed' (I don't have admin rights)
Same problem here on my rMBP 15". I have tried the update twice now and both times it hangs about half way through the boot with the white Apple on a black background. The only way I got it working after the first time was by opening Recovery mode and restoring a Time Machine backup to yesterday. Then I tried the update again and had the same result. Guess I will be restoring to a backup again and then not updating to 10.11.2
MacBook wont start after software upgrade to El Capitan 10.11.2
