Keyboard not working at random: crng init done

[Mohd]

I installed dietpi RPI ARMv6 on my raspberry pi zero w, when the boot stops at

Code: Select all

random: crng init done

, I'm supposed to press Enter right? But the keyboard is not working, tried two but no use. Although I plugged a mouse and it worked!

What should I do ?

Hi,

At boot, the kernel waits for mouse movements to initialize the random number generator.

Not sure if it helps but maybe you can try to following

Code: Select all

apt-get install haveged
systemctl enable haveged
reboot

On our RPi image, rng-tools is installed, which should render haveged obsolete.

For first boot, attach some mouse or keyboard and move/type, or wait for a few minutes until the system gathered entropy from elsewhere.

Then check if rng-tools is running:

Code: Select all

systemctl status rngd
journalctl -u rngd

Joulinar, I can't type anything, the whole keyboard is not working. I tried moving and clicking the mouse but nothing happened (though it's working)

As I mentioned previously, I can't type anything since the whole keyboard is not working with the os (though it worked with raspbian before). And the mouse moving/clicking did nothing.
I just noticed I'm having [end kernel panic] and an error loading libraries:

Hi,

did you tried a fresh installation on a different SD Card?

No, does that mean the image is corrupted ? I'll try another SD

[Joulinar]

Hi,
you never know. It could be SD card, the download image or something went wrong during flashing. Just to ensure that this is not the case.

@Mohd
Okay the kernel panic is a good reason why things hang. Yes please try to reflash.
