Hi!

I´ am trying to get my tor-server up and running and i used the howto 
described here:

http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/OpenbsdChrootedTor

That worked for me as long as i didn´t reboot the machine :-/
After the reboot i created manually the devfs and /dev/null as described 
there.

But when i try to start tor with the command:
chroot -u _tor -g _tor /home/chrooted/tor /bin/tor -f /etc/tor/torrc

the - the following output is shown in the notice.log:



Aug 03 01:49:45.325 [notice] Tor 0.1.0.12 opening log file.

entropy source found.

generator. Exiting.




And in the debug.log there is this information:

Please can someone help me to fix this problem! I want to be an Exit ;-)

Thanks a lot,
