Description Michael Young 2011-03-23 11:36:18 UTC

If you boot into single user mode and then run poweroff, systemd does a full ordinary start up before shutting the system down again. In many cases this is bad, because you are in single user mode precisely to avoid a full start up.

poweroff should mean that anything running is stopped and the system is then turned off, it should not let anything else be started.

This is fixed in git.
