systemd doesn't use inittab (it's a sysvinit file). > It was the easiest way to switch off the machine that I knew of. > Now is there something similar with systemd? > Ctrl-Alt-Del appears to reboot the machine now. /lib/systemd/system/ctrl-alt-del.target is linked to reboot.target in the same directory. It requires systemd-reboot.service which contains the line ExecStart=/bin/systemctl --force reboot Changing 'reboot' to 'poweroff' will get you what you want. However, this is the wrong thing to do (but is useful for testing the idea) because your changes will disappear at upgrade time [1], so you should think in terms of how your own file(s) in /etc/systemd could achieve the same objective.
