What are you updating to.
olpc-update expects a comman line option that references and image to
update to.  You can get the info about the 'latest' from the OLPC wiki.

The update process should not be interrupted.   Make sure
you are connected to reliable power... i.e. plugged in to AC charging power.

Also internet connectivity is required... Can you use the web browser activity to
browse the OLPC wiki for hints.

If you have tanked the image on your olpc you may need to load a USB key
with the update or a failsave/ live image.

Does the OLPC boot now?
