message not_enough_entropy
{This system seems to lack a cryptographically strong pseudo random
number generator. There is not enough entropy available to create secure
keys (e.g. ssh host keys).

If you plan to use this installation for production work and will
for example have ssh host keys generated, we strongly advise to complete
the entropy setup now!

You may use random data generated on another computer and load it
here, or you could enter random characters manually.

If you have a USB random number device, connect it now and select
the "Re-test" option.}

message entropy_download_raw		{Load raw binary random data}

message entropy_enter_manual1
{Enter one line of random characters.}

{They should contain at last 256 bits of randomness, as in 256 coin
tosses, 100 throws of a 6-sided die, 64 random hexadecimal digits, or
(if you are able to copy & paste output from another machine into this
installer) the output from running the following command on another
machine whose randomness you trust:}

message entropy_enter_manual3
{A line of any length and content will be accepted and assumed to
contain at least 256 bits of randomness.  If it actually contains
less, the installed system may not be secure.}

to this machine:}

{Since not enough entropy is available on this system, all crytographic
operations are suspect to replay attacks.
Please only use trustworthy local networks.}

generator you can create an entropy snapshot like this:}
