You might be better off using this: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ cat /etc/gcrypt/random.conf # Options for the random generator # We don't trust the the Jitter based thing - do not use it. #disable-jent only-urandom --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- instead if the very brittle and CPU dependent haveged. On any decent Linux urandom is good enough. Right at some early boot stages and on a fresh or not properly shutdown system, it might have too less entropy. But if you have such concerns you should anyway use the latest Libgcrypt which does not only mix in RDRAND but als entropy from its own JitterRNG. Shalom-Salam, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
