Hmm, interesting. Normally this environment stuff is only used for controlling the type of a poweroff (i.e. halt vs. poweroff), and matters little. Note that this messages should only become visible if you try to control systemd with implementations of halt/reboot/poweroff/shutdown from the old sysvinit package. It is recommended to use the native systemd implementations instead which you get by symlinking /bin/systemctl to the various binaries. For more details see: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2010-June/000072.html > And then the system freezes ! Completely?

No. This is done internally of the old sysvinit poweroff binary. > Any hint will be appreciated ! My guess is that some kind of ordering loop makes it impossible to put together and execute the shutdown transaction. Check syslog/dmesg. Does "systemctl poweroff" work?
