After switching init systems, your running init system may not accept the new poweroff commands. You will need to reboot/poweroff using the running init’s utilities for the new utilities to work. These commands are for the init system currently running on your system and not the one you are switching to.
| Program | Command |
|---|---|
| busybox | ‘busybox reboot’ |
| runit | ‘runit-init 6’ |
| shinit/sinit | ‘kill -s INT 1’ |
