Now try CTRL+ALT+DEL on the console. This will reboot your system. See /etc/inittab: # What to do when CTRL-ALT-DEL is pressed. ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -r now Next, try hitting the power button. This will shut down your system. On systems with acpi support, Debian has been installing acpid + acpi-support-base in the past. See /etc/acpi/powerbtn-acpi-support.sh Next install a display manager, like gdm3 or lightdm. This will allow you shutdown/reboot the system as well. Basically, it was a completely inconsistent mess before systemd. Now you at least have a central place where you can configure your system behaviour.
