3. Instead of going the usual App Store route, run the following command inside the terminal:
This should attempt to install all available updates, and will log errors to /var/log/install.log
Once update is downloaded, you'll see a message in the terminal which tells you to Restart immediately.
NOTE: The machine reboots several times. Upon the first reboot, the install file should be selected by default. Then another reboot, and second time you'll have to reselect the same install file manually and proceed. The installation should then complete. Once it completes, it'll reboot once more and at this point, should automatically boot into your OS.
