    Hi glassofsound

    I have a similar, possibiliy the same issue.

    My problems started when I decided to use the btrfs file system. Being the simple fs it is, it yame me a few issues.

    I was dual booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 which ofcourse worked fine, using a logical partition, I kept my opt, scripts and home folders on 1/partition and the system on another. Thus if I want to remove everything Linux, I would simply delete the LVM.

    However, when installing Kali eventually (was having trouble witht the cd-rom issue - removing and reinserting flash didn't help, had to reflash to a seperate usb, YUMI installing Kali does not work, gives cd-rom error - after kali install, grub was overwritten with Kali grub and Ubuntu boot is gone.

    After a few hours of copying and renaming btrfs subvolumes for @kali and @ubuntu-gnome and adding entries to grub.cfg directly (not recommended) I got my grub menu to work with all OS's and background (yay!) but got a systemd error.

    TL;DR I have several services which don't start, ~5-7, amoung which fails to start and hangs the system is 'systrmd-logind.service' which fails to start. Other services include Network Manager and a few others.

    I shall post my solution if I get this problem resolved
