After seatch, I detected that /var/run/random-seed file don't exists.

I created this using

cat /dev/random > /var/run/random-seed

After this, I use

settrans -c /dev/urandom /hurd/random \
           --seed-file /var/run/urandom-seed --fast


To up the urandom translator.


After this, the problem feels solved
