Public bug reported:

On Ubuntu 16.04 Cinammon, systemctl isolate multi-user.target hangs the system.
I've tried editing the multi-user.target file as a snippet, or the whole thing, 
but with no fix.
The system flashes a very momentary prompt to login as a single user without a 
GUI, but then the screen goes black and the system is hung.
Same on Linux Mint 18.
systemctl isolate multi-user.target works successfully on OpenSuse Leap 42.1, 
and CentOS 7, as I tested the command on these other systems to check. The 
glaring difference I noticed is that in the multi-user.target unit file, 
AllowIsolate and CanIsolate is set to yes in the other Linux systems, but to no 
in Ubuntu.
