I randomly checked the amount of entropy, please note in advance that haveged was currently installed!
root@Turris_JB:~# cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
256
root@Turris_JB:~#
Nevertheless, check the installation and launch of the application
Package haveged (1.9.18-1) installed in root is up to date.
root@Turris_JB:~# /etc/init.d/haveged enable && /etc/init.d/haveged start
root@Turris_JB:~# ^C
root@Turris_JB:~# cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
256

I’d check the maximum:
cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/poolsize
as on my big machine it’s 256. I expect that entropy_avail
also won’t grow over it.

Anyway, I don’t expect there’s anything Turris-specific here, but I don’t really know this stuff. Maybe places like https://unix.stackexchange.com/q/704737/41413

in the past, the entropy value was always around 2.000
root@Turris_JB:~# cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/poolsize
256
root@Turris_JB:~#
The change in entropy creation is incomprehensible to me -
