Many thanks to all who have been putting effort into this issue. I plan to download the lasted build and try booting my AlphaStations again.

Unless you actively enabled systemd-networkd/systemd-resolveconfd, they don't become active on their own. And NetworkManager is not related to systemd. I do recommend setting up systemd-networkd/systemd-resolveconfd for headless machines though as it makes network configuration rather painless. Adrian -- .''`.
