Thanks to a tip from Jos? I was able to tweak my settings for randomization and it worked: Try use a best entropy source. This could be fixed using /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random. To do this, rename the /dev/random device to /dev/random_bak (mv /dev/random /dev/random_bak) and make a symbolic link of urandom to random (ln -s /dev/urandom /dev/random) Thanks to your tip Michael - I've just also backed up my sources.list for after I flash!
