379: The MacOS installer shipped with OpenBSD 2.7 does not correctly make all

381: needed for the userland crypto such as ssh to work. The problem shows itself

384: <br>
385: To work around this, once your machine is up and running run the following
386: commands as root:
387: <tt><pre>

389: # ./MAKEDEV arandom
