I don't know how I would look in that. Is it in RAM at boot time? In the log which appears on the screen it says: Begin: Waiting for suspend/resume device ... Begin: Running /scripts/local-block ... done. random: crng init done /scripts/local-block ... done. Then this last line was repeated 17 times and much time was spent. Then it gave up.
