Tell me about it :( - unfortunately I've no control whatsoever about 
 the choice of hardware.

It doesn't come as far. I've checked further, and what's holding it up 
 is /etc/rc6.d/S20sendsigs, the `killall5 -15`. I strace'd it, and the 
 last thing I get is "rt_sigaction(-1, SIGSTOP" (note the missing ")"). 
 If I background both killall5's, it comes as far as "Saving random 
 seed... done", eg S30urandom finishes.

Hmm, can it be that killall5 doesn't actually manage to *not* kill 
 itself? This would be a quite grave bug.

cheers,
