Description of problem: In early boot stages fedora does not reboot when pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del, instead it hangs in some undetermined state. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fedora 22 kernel-4.0.8-300.fc22.x86_64 dracut-041-14.fc22.x86_64 systemd-219-19.fc22.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot a fedora installation (ideally with encrypted partitions requiring unlock at boot) 2. wait until kernel started booting. (Ideally when you are prompted to enter your cryptsetup password) 3. press Ctrl+Alt+Del Actual results: Stops booting. Doesn't reboot. Doesn't do anything anymore. I need to press the (hardware) reset button to reboot. Expected results: Should reboot. Additional info: I think you need more information, but I don't know what information to provide, so please tell me what to do.
Just to confirm, after step 3, you are still able to enter the password, then press enter and nothing happens anymore. Is that about right? This is what happens to me, I just want to make sure that there aren't any more different problems.
No, I am not. After pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del systemd does something (stopped … target, started … target, …) and the cryptsetup prompt doesn't reappear.
To be more precise it does this: [ OK ] Stopped Setup Virtual Console. Stopping Setup Virtual Console... [ OK ] Reached target Unmount All Filesystems. [ OK ] Removed slice system-systemd\x2dcryptsetup.slice.
Now, on Fedora 25, the "Actual Result" has changed a bit so that nothing happens any more. Comment #3 isn't applying any more.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Still unable to use Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot during inserting LUKS password or after mounting LUKS partitions failed.
This Issue is still present in Fedora 29 Beta release.
