Subsequent boot attempts got me the normal blue-green-blue-green-green flashing LED sequence on boot(may have been that way 1st time, but I failed to observe it), but still wouldn't get farther than two screen refreshes(brief flashes) and a blank screen. I ended up doing a factory reset/restore with the buttons/paperclip and reverting to 1.9.13 and using the Kobo desktop to perform the update which went fine, except the darned desktop thought the Touch couldn't be found after downloading and had to download it all over again.(Bad 1st download on desktop? Stupid desktop software? Who knows.) So three times the data usage I had intended, but it got sorted.

I'd advise you to perform a factory reset and upgrade again, if you continue to have problems. Checksums are not infallible and sometimes downloads and upgrades can go sideways.
I agree, I also think the device is taking longer to boot because it may be converting the database files... just a guess on my part though, and what we may think as a non boot may just be lack of patience on our part or human nature if you will.
