Dear all, turns out, my system was suffering from completely different bug with similar symptoms. It was a problem with the motherboard BIOS. I upgraded the BIOS and the bug went away. I'm taking myself off the mailing list for this bug.
If you're suffering from a similar issue even after the fix in Xenial, try upgrading your BIOS. If that doesn't help and you're on a desktop, try clearing CMOS with the jumper (not through the menu) after the successful BIOS upgrade. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1464917 Title: reboot hangs at 'Reached target Shutdown' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/systemd/+bug/1464917/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
