Hi,

Right - but I'm not even getting to anywhere near this point.

It's hanging in hostapd when hostapd tries reading random data.

again, if i try ctrl-C'ing whilst the random device is inside
random_adaptor_read(), it's just .. broken. The read doesn't finish,
the process doesn't accept any new input, signals or anything - it
just doesn't work.

So, is there some way to go back to whatever the previous revision
before this did? It at least comes up and doesn't hang things.

Thanks,
