I've never seen this before? >From /usr/src/UPDATING: 20040409: Due to changes in the the Yarrow initialization process, /dev/random needs to be fed before operations requiring temp files can succeed in single user mode. This includes running "make installworld". /dev/random may be fed by running "/etc/rc.d/initrandom start" or with 20040415 source by running "/etc/rc.d/preseedrandom". Also discussed in this list at the time :) -- Rob | Oh my God! They killed init! You bastards!Received on Sat May 29 2004 - 00:05:56 UTC
