I also experienced a blocked system every time i shutdown or reboot my Dell Latitude 6530 with ubuntu 14.10 (64bit), after upgrading from 14.04). If i remove the "quiet splash" kernel option from the grub menu, the last message seen is "wait-for-state stop/waiting".
After installing "systemd-sysv" and a final shutdown problem on invoking "halt", the problem seems to be gone (2 reboots and one halt were successful). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1349566 Title: systemd-logind triggered poweroffs ignore upstart services Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: systemd-logind has a facility to detect non-ACPI power-off events (e.g. a power button push) and initiate a system shutdown. This facility works in Ubuntu - it manages to shutdown the sysvinit services, but upstart services do not appear to be cleanly shutdown. Among other things, it means that local filesystems don't get properly unmounted.
