@Daniel I don't think systemd is to blame, older xenial images worked. Upstart is still in uses as well for example starting/stopping unity8 via /sbin/initctl.
It's the image 40 which is the last one that works. 41 and newer are broken. The diff in packages between 40 and 41 is quite big: http://paste.ubuntu.com/20295674/
