You do get that already. It is not as bad as you might think. Basically the install script dumps 64K of its own randomness to the filesystem for the first boot, just like we do any other reboot. If you think that 64K of data from an install machine has zero entropy to it, you'd be wrong. We admit it is not great entropy. But entropy from the different moments in the reboot cycle do add up to something useable.
