Hi!

This appears to be another reason for sysvinit or any other init system 
that actually uses the seed file to let the kernel start with enough 
entropy:

Daniel Lange: Openssh taking minutes to become available, booting takes 
half an hour ... because your server waits for a few bytes of randomness

I do understand the concern when booting from hundreds identical images, 
but when creating images, you'd better delete OpenSSH host keys, seed 
file and so on.

I consider getting a chaoskey. :)

Thanks,
