Last thing it does is say this then hang until I remove the power and restart.

Is there a way to debug the service to see what the problem is?

but even if it helps, it still doesn't tell us what is wrong.

[Ok] Started Generate shutdown-ramfs
This means that it actually finished running the generation. It's hanging somewhere else.
What can we do to find out what is causing it? I got hit by this for the first time on Jan 16:

Where it says -- Reboot -- I had to do a hard-reset to reboot it. This occurred updating linux (3.12.6-1 -> 3.12.7-2). Is there anything I can provide.

]]>it's related because if I mask the service "mkinitcpio-generate-shutdown-ramfs.service" the random bug is gone under virtualbox,
How do you know that? Personally, I can't reproduce this at all, it just happens every 10th shutdown or so, entirely independent of anything else I do (or so it seems).
doing a "Generate shutdown-ramfs" during shutdown on a virtual machine seems non safe, maybe this action triggers a new bug in virtualbox
This sentence is pure nonsense.

]]>after upgrading mkinitcpio ( 16 ) and systemd ( 208-3 ) I notice new messages during shutdown, the shutdown is a little bit slower now :
http://hfr-rehost.dev.syn.fr/self/e300a … 747a4f.png
is it possible to avoid these multiple lines "unmounting /oldroot" and "cgroup : option or name mismatch, new: 0x0"", old: 0x4 "systemd" ?
It seems that something has changed in mkinitcpio package,
These messages indicate a clean umount of all file systems. If you don't want a clean shutdown, you can mask the service
systemctl mask mkinitcpio-generate-shutdown-ramfs.service
this change creates a random bug in virtualbox with my archlinux 32 bits virtual machine, during shutdown systemd can waits almost 1 minute after this message
I pretty much doubt that is related at all. I get random hangs during shutdown all the time, just every 10th shutdown or so. No idea what's going on there.

if I downgrade mkinitcpio it solves the problem
