Clean install from RC2 ISO.
Still hangs on shutdown @ “Reached target Shutdown”.
Cheers.
Me too, on a kvm VM, with some modules installed.
I found this page that explains how to enable debug during shutdown, but I didn’t try it though:
https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Debugging/#index2h1
Do you have a KVM VM too?
Mine’s an ESXi VM.
I also followed the instructions in the referenced page and came to these conclusions:
It’s a systemd issue and needs either a serial console or a debug shell to go any further with determination.

After poking around Google for a while, it seemed that quite a few other reports of this centered around “swap”.
So, I increased the Virtual Storage of this test server so that no swap was used. Now it shuts down or reboots cleanly.
The only difference I saw was that the shutdown seems much quicker and I wasn’t able to see the shutdown messages, no matter which keys I pressed on the “console” while it was shutting down.
Cheers.

Thank you for your hint @EddieA!
My VM has 9GB disk space (very little). How much did you allocate?
I was talking about the RAM allocation, so that the swap space wasn’t used.
Cheers.
