Mark, the installer progress bar lingered for me as well. I did the same thing as you did: turn off the machine and then turn it back on. I don't know know how El Capitan installed itself, but it did. This odd behavior is especially disturbing to me as a new Mac user of two months. I am wondering if some of the problems I am having with El Capitan are due to the way it was installed--a process I rather bumbled my way through. I'm not at all proud of my achievement and am now thinking of reverting back to Yosemite.
