Subject: [Cerowrt-devel] pcengines apu2c4 hardware random number generation
Date: Wed, 4 May 2016 16:28:06 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAA93jw4PDKEApsZxKMed7Z6rq=DU=a4-zJEbJ=_8syF9Be_fzA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
one of the few flaws in this board so far is that it does not appear
the GX-412TC in it has a hardware random number generator.
(yes, I just ran it out of random numbers)
There are ton of "hardware random number generators out there" - quite
a few fairly "cheap" ones on usb.
The board has internal usb headers, gpios, and i2c. Any other means of
generating good random numbers?

so I figure that there might be something even simpler out there from
the pi-ish or beaglebone world that could be repurposed to suit?
I've always wanted to have *3* hwrngs - one designed by the NSA,
another by the KGB, and one by open source folk, and to mix them
together.
