I copied the .zip file to the computer, unpacked it back to the .kobo directory and did a reset. Updated happily and she's a happy camper again.

At a guess, there is a glitch in the update code so it stalls after downloading the file and before the .zip file is extracted and the ereader restarted to continue the update.
Do you still have the file? And do you know if there was a stack log? Elsewhere, Kobo have asked for this to help them debug. I can pass it on if you can upload it somewhere.
