The current text assumes your user is always "homeassistant" (#7642)

* The current text assumes your user is always "homeassistant"

If you follow the advanced guide to setup a virtual environment a user named "homeassistant" or whatever you want will be created. See:
https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/installation/raspberry-pi/
If you follow this guide the "homeassistant" user won't be created:
https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/installation/virtualenv
This page actually refers to the Autostart page on which is assumed that you created a user named "homeassistant". It's better to refer to the user which runs HA in general.

* All occurences of [your user] replaced by YOUR_USER

* Update systemd.markdown

A service file is needed to control Home Assistant with `systemd`. The template below should be created using a text editor. Note, root permissions via `sudo` will likely be needed. The following should be noted to modify the template:
- `ExecStart` contains the path to `hass` and this may vary. Check with `whereis hass` for the location.
- For most systems, the file is `/etc/systemd/system/home-assistant@[your user].service` with [your user] replaced by the user account that Home Assistant will run as (normally `homeassistant`). In particular, this is the case for Ubuntu 16.04.
- If unfamiliar with command-line text editors, `sudo nano -w [filename]` can be used with `[filename]` replaced with the full path to the file. Ex. `sudo nano -w /etc/systemd/system/home-assistant@[your user].service`. After text entered, press CTRL-X then press Y to save and exit.
- For most systems, the file is `/etc/systemd/system/home-assistant@YOUR_USER.service` with YOUR_USER replaced by the user account that Home Assistant will run as (normally `homeassistant`). In particular, this is the case for Ubuntu 16.04.

- If you're running Home Assistant in a Python virtual environment or a Docker container, please skip to the appropriate template listed below.
