Below are the few things which might go wrong during the OS upgrade and you need to be careful about it
Loss of Power – A loss of power during any major system update can be harmful to data and this is also true when upgrading your OS. Losing power during an OS upgrade can corrupt the boot sector of the drive and other areas of the partition so the files are no longer accessible, even if you hook it up as an external storage device.
Not having enough space – Not having enough space on your drive during an OS upgrade can cause the system to reboot after only a partial install. The system will not be able to boot up which will lock down access to any files.
It is best to check your drive space before any major upgrade. Most upgrades will tell you how much system space is required on the information screen before you agree to install it. A good suggestion is to double the system space requirement to accommodate the temp files that are used during the installation.
