Stuff…

It was taking ages to get enough entropy to generate a key using GPG.  Tried a few things like piping /dev/urandom to /dev/null but it didn’t help.  Ended up installing “rngd” and running it with: rngd -r /dev/urandom

This went into the background and the gpg –gen-key started working happily again with enough entropy to generate my key.
