please refer to my problem in the following thread: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/642167
I note that System D (aka system 500) is a bit new. I am one of the casualty trying to transit into this new system. Luckily for me, i manage to clear the problematic symptoms of not shutting down by removing a Sysvinit service using rc-local.service which i created myself. I hope i can point someone in the right direction. Happy problem solving. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1594023 Title: Poweroff or reboot hangs.
