1.1 deraadt 377: <br>
378: The MacOS installer shipped with OpenBSD 2.7 does not correctly make all
379: devices, specifically it does not make the <tt>/dev/arandom</tt> device
380: needed for the userland crypto such as ssh to work. The problem shows itself

383: <br>
384: To work around this, once your machine is up and running run the following
385: commands as root:
386: <tt><pre>
1.8 deraadt 387: # cd /dev
388: # ./MAKEDEV arandom
