I'm also having trouble shutting down with systemd, and I have
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH="/sbin/hotplug"
So I'll try this solution. Thanks.

Just a quick question: is the same also true for Fedora 14
(upstart-1.2, udev-161)? i.e. can and should that config option be
cleared under that setup too? I guess so, given that /sbin/hotplug
doesn't even exist.

Thanks,
Daniel
