lsh can create a random seed with some entropy from other sources, like various system state or even the traditional random typing thing. So even if real /dev/random is strongly recommended, it is not absolutely necessary. It would be really nice to have a xenofarm client running on a Hurd machine. That's the easiest way to see if it works on the hurd, as well as getting details on compilation problems etc. See http://www.lysator.liu.se/xenofarm/ and http://www.lysator.liu.se/ for details. Mail me if you need any help setting it up. /Niels
