Looks like the problem with random-64 installed was that it was not executable. Regarding random-egd I don't really know why it failed. The problems appeared due to that /dev/random and /dev/random were not created. To be added is that I am running as root using sudo. BTW: Is there a way to create the root login, choosing sudo to do everything as user is very cumbersome. It is much better to have a root and an ordinary user. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
