I was reading the same article today! This point in particular:
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/sy ... eventually
We are aware of the problem but we still didn't fount a satisfatory solution. It seems we are not the only ones to suffer this weird behaviour:

PS: Elliott B, you already are our most prolific bug reporter Just let me tell you that your cooperation on this is really appreciated. Thank you and keep it up!

I did some tests in my custom archlinuxARM/mpd distro. I also suffered from slow shutdowns. I decided to replace netctl with systemd-networkd. The change was extremely easy and the configuration is as easy as netctl was.

After this change, boot is faster and shutdown is finally as it should be.

Hi,
also here very slow shutdown.
I've activated the debug and I've found a lot of errors like:
.....
Failed to send unit remove signal for <.....> Transport endpoint is not connected, any ideas?

Hi ab.eccolo,

without more information it's very hard to help.

- device (RP1, RP2, Odroid, Cubietruck)
- shutdown via user interface UI or via console?
- updates installed
- is it a new installation or a older one?
- free space on sd card (df -h)

Thank a lot Frank, you are right, without any information is not simple:-)
So,
-device -> raspberry 2
-shutdown -> i use a ATXRaspi board to shutdown the raspberry, so I've enabled the rc-local service in order to run in background a script that execute "systemctl poweroff" if I press the power button.
-yes update rune ui instelld
- new installation (if with my modifications can be called fresh instalation again.....

Thanks again for your support

EDIT -> I've expaned the partition, new df:
[root@runeaudio ~]# df -h

//nas_dlinkVolume_1/Music 915G 725G 191G 80% /mnt/MPD/NAS/Libreria

EDIT 2 : as workaround to poweroff the runeaudio in the script I've set instead of systemctl poweroff:
sync ; sync ; poweroff -f

I know that is not the best way to shutdown a distro, but for now works...



@tux, is there any tutorial in order to set the modification on netctl? ( I don't still know very well systemd ....)

It works perfectly! Thanks a lot
Great support for a great (good, very good) sound oriented distro
Thanks again.
