Subject: rngd: Always start the daemon
X-Git-Tag: v2.21-core122~134
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ab91dde24b512f7a6067937803946a10750b1ed6;p=ipfire-2.x.git

rngd: Always start the daemon

We cannot reliably detect in this script any more if the
system has an actual HWRNG (/dev/hwrng always exists).

Therefore we always start the daemon now and let it
deal with what ever comes.
