+          <li>When using the `ssh` boot option Grml automatically starts haveged, an userspace entropy daemon which
+          uses HAVEGE (HArdware Volatile Entropy Gathering and Expansion).
+          If you should notice a slow boot and want to force the startup of the haveged service (independent of usage of ssh boot option)
+          you can start the service via boot option `services=haveged`.

           <li>The cpufrequtils package with its loadcpufreq handling has been dropped. The cpufreq drivers are autoloaded and the powersave/ondemand driver is mature enough. The linux-cpupower tools provide the binaries as replacement for what cpufrequtils provided so far.
