I have similar problems with systemd when I try to shutdown or reboot; the 
system hangs, sometimes for ever. I have managed mostly to get round the 
issue by simply shutting down all unnecessary running processes before 
shutdown or reboot, but I still have issues. 

Will this work for an i386 machine, as well? I did try installing Devuan, but 
without success (as it seems the process used by their installation disc 
wants to overwrite my home folder); I also gave exegnulinux, but that also 
was unsatisfactory. 

My current system is Debian Jessie, and runs pretty much like I want, except 
for some minor bugs. My biggest complaint is systemd, and I really want to go 
back to using sysvinit. 

Also: I wonder if it is possible to switch to Devuan without doing a complete 
reinstallation? i.e., after changing over to sysvinit, can I enable Devuan 
repositories (and disable Debian), then do something like 
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
or whatever?
