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.
