indeed /dev/random is the problem. Like mish said i could use /dev/urandom. I don't have /dev/hwrandom, so the urandom solution or the script mentioned in the manpage of random is the one i need.
As a theoretically question, how can i use this script mentioned in the manpage? Mishs tip is helpful not to save entrophy in /var/run. but i stuck with putting the scripts at the right place.
I put them to /etc/rcS.d for sart-up and there i put it with a name like S25... but this seems not to working as i get something like "dd: cat unknown command" or something equal like that.
the shutdown-script i put in rc0.d and rc6.d but also there i don't know if this is correct and which numbers i should use. i assume it should be something like S... because if i understand this right, S is for starting the script. rc0.d and rc6.d are for shutdown and restart, if i am right.
Patrick J. LoPresti and mish,
thank you both for the help.
