Why not create it in the recipe's do_install? Or possibly add it to volatiles file.

OK, It may be a more reasonable solution creating it in do_install, I will send the V1 patch.

Also talk with Qi Chen about the readonly FS stuff to make sure this will work.


OK, I will talk to Qi.

Sau!

Fixed by using /var/lib/misc instead of /var/lib/urandom.
