    So you’ve asked on Apple’s developer forums, yes?

    about 15-20 mins. I did the same update on my rmbp , it took only 1-2 mins without any freeze.

    Well, I’d restore from your last backup and try again. Heck, it might have installed correctly enough that you could boot off the recovery partition, but a clean backup restore is probably better.

    Well then.

     

    Shut ‘er down and start ‘er up again. Hold Option after the boot chime until you see your cursor and eventually you’ll see Macintosh HD and “Recovery 10.10” (or 10.9 if Yosemite didn’t work). Boot to that and do this.
