I've read things about that in other lists. There's a new
requirement to have a big enough amount of random numbers (they call
this entropy, as an extension of the physical concept to computing),
in some new random generator. openssh requires that to be able to
start securely. The only workaround, IMHO is to find a way to not wait
until openssh is ready to continue the start up.

If you install 'haveged' package /dev/random and /dev/urandom should (a)
be better quality and (b) programs that need chunks of random data such
as SSL on start-up should come up more quickly, i.e. not block waiting.
