I still do not understand the problem.  Do you say that in an early boot
phase /dev/random is not yet mknod-ed or mounted?  If that is the case,
how at all does the boot process work without /dev/null - that it is
universally used before exec.  I don't understand where the difference
is.


Salam-Shalom,
