Bug#794264: systemd: System will no longer boot

ael law_ence.dev at ntlworld.com

Package: systemd
Version: 221-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

I had to select the sysvinit option from the grub menu in order to
achieve a boot. The standard menu entry got as far as (probably) trying
to spawn X, and then hung. But it had no business doing that because
the default target was set to
default.target -> /lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target
in /etc/systemd/systemd/
