Hi Michal, 

thank you for the doc text, I have modified it a bit. Could you have a look at it and tell me whether it is correct content-wise? 

Thank you

Jaroslav

I guess that doc text gets the message across, but the wording is bit unfortunate.

Specifically, use of the word "terminate". systemd as PID1 cannot really terminate (ever) because kernel would panic and reboot the machine immediately. I'd replace it with the word crash. I think we should refrain from using jargon in doc texts (if possible) but trying to use the synonym doesn't really work here and would look silly to people who understand the low-level system details.
