I just installed Indiana RC2a, based on NV86 on a Acer Ferrari 4005 WLMi AMD64 laptop.
I get this message after installing on first boot:

kcf: [ID 415456 kern.warning] WARNING:
No randomness provider enabled for /dev/random. Use cryptoadm(1M) to enable provider.

The system seems to work OK, but this is a unfriendly message.  A provider should be set by default.  Furthermore, the cryptoadm(1M) man page says nothing useful about how to set a provider.
