According to my research, "systemd doesn't work with 14.04".
However, on all my Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty" machines, systemd is running:
jay@host:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Release: 14.04
Codename: trusty
So if it doesn't work with Trusty, why on earth is systemd installed and running?
jay@host:~$ dpkg -l | grep systemd
