Running 'cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail' should show you what
your available entropy is during the keygen process.

There are a variety of things you can do to increase the size of the entropy
pool, but if you're willing to accept less entropy at this point to get
things going, pass '-r /dev/urandom' to dnssec-keygen (see 'man urandom').
