Public bug reported: Yet another of the annoying "system hangs at shutdown" bug reports. A fresh complete install of 16.04. Just like the others, gets down to:
Reached target shutdown then stops. I've tried all the workarounds discussed, including swapoff -a, before shutdown attempt, etc. No joy. Have to hold power switch for hard shutdown very time. One observation of possible value. I also very recently installed 16.04 server on two other identical boxes. Neither of them exhibit this problem and both shut down cleanly. Only this system, which is a 16.04 desktop version -- again on an identical box -- is having this problem. Frankly, it's stuff like this that makes my efforts to move ordinary consumers over to Linux very difficult! ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578015 Title: Yet another system hangs at shutdown (16.04) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1578015/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
