[Bug 1387241] Re: systemctl is broken

[Martin Pitt]

You actually need to  boot with systemd for systemctl to work. But NB
that in Ubuntu 14.10 this isn't officially supported yet, and many stuff
is still broken. But you can append "init=/bin/systemd" to the command
line to play with it; a normal desktop works very well.
