Hello Michael,
One thing I have noticed about this:
(c)inaddy@temp:~$ systemctl status radvd
● radvd.service - Router advertisement daemon for IPv6
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/radvd.service; disabled; vendor preset:
enabled)
Active: inactive (dead)

continuing anyway

references path below legacy directory /var/run/, upd
After the reboot, the service is NOT enabled by default, likely because
of missing radvd.conf file in /etc. What you are seeing is just a
deprecated warning message (15:49:20) after reboot, but I was able to
manually start my service after reboot.
The real issue here could be not having radvd.conf file created by
default, at least a simple one like this:
interface eth0
{
AdvSendAdvert on;
prefix 2001:db8::/64
{
};
};
And, possibly, the installation would enable radvd.service by default.
In the second boot I have enabled radvd and after a new reboot it goot
started automatically:
