Bug#770090: systemd: systemctl poweroff doesn't poweroff

[fzacarias3k .]

Hi again,
I got the updated to 215-8 (latest version in jessie) but the problem still
persists.
Note that if I switch back to sysvinit (by installing sysvinit-core), my
system powers off properly so this is definitely a problem related to
systemd.
I also noticed that very few times, the system poweroff properly, so this
looks like some kind or race-condition. Do you know of a way to debug
systemd's poweroff procedure? Right now, I have no idea what it is doing
because the screen turns black right after I execute the poweroff command.
Is there a way for systemd to write a detailed log of what it's doing?

Regarding the kexec question, I have no kexec packages installed.
