My Ubuntu 15.04 is fresh installed using the frugal install method. Its a Sony Vaio VGN-FW250j and the bios is locked out, which is why I had to use the Frugal method. Its a dual boot system with Windows 7. The two share a Data drive for storage only. I wish I knew how to capture the shutdown data. I have not upgraded to 15.10 since someone confirmed its still doing it on that as well. The one odd thing for me is I tried to use a different browser than Chromium. I started using Firefox and the Target Reached Shutdown hang only hangs for a few seconds and then shutsdown on its own. But every time I bring up Chromium it hangs on shutdown or reboot and I have to use SYSRQ+alt+REISUB to reboot then wait until its up again just so I can shutdown properly. So I don't understand that and so far no one has been able to explain or repeat that to confirm it. It is very repeatable for me. My hunch is some background google app that is embedded with Chromium is the culprit, at least in my case. It may just be the beginning of a chain of events that happen to cause the hang but I don't know that because I can't capture the shutdown data. I need a forensics tool.

Hitting esc to reveal the console showed a normal set of shutdown messages, ending with 'Reached target Shutdown' (paraphrased from memory). The system never rebooted on its own. I had to use SysRq to finish the shutdown.
