I started the rngd daemon on the uml with kernel 2.6.26rc6 but sshd failed again. This is what the logs showed: Jun 20 10:10:14 rngd[2874]: rngd 2-unofficial-mt.10 starting up...

I tried again with kernel 2.6.26-rc5 (without skas4 compiled in) and with this kernel, ssh works. So it seems like some things changed between rc5 and rc6.
