More information:
* reboot -f and poweroff -f work fine. * if I start a debug-shell on a serial port, at some point the shell seems to freeze as well. * if I boot with sysvinit (installing sysvinit-core instead of systemd-sysv), things work fine: - The system reboots even if an X11 console is active - During the shutdown, I can switch between text consoles and see log messages It seems that there is some problem with the way that X11 is terminated when using systemd. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
