-There is no random device by default as no secure implementation has been
-finished yet. An easy (but very insecure) work-around is to copy a binary file
-like `/bin/bash` to `/dev/random` and `/dev/urandom`. A slightly more secure
-alternative is installing the `random-egd` from the `debian-ports` repository.
