https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#entropy-starvation is just so seriously broken I do not have any words for it. Just *booting* the system should not depend on enough entropy being available. Starting services that need entropy may be delayed, but just booting should not depend on entropy being available.
