Comment 24 for bug 1779476

I find it disturbing we still have parts of the system that will block start-up waiting for entropy. That's not a good user experience.

But maybe that's not the same problem as njsf is experiencing...

njsf: Do you find an older kernel fixes the problem for you too? Try one of these:

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.14.53/
  https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/14927311

You may also want to try:

  sudo apt install haveged
