I think that's probably a red-herring - if  the line ends with
quickstart you can rule it out.

Commonly that initrandom output is last line to display before fsck
runs, the actual sequence is:

/etc/rc.d/initrandom
/etc/rc.d/geli
/etc/rc.d/gbde
/etc/rc.d/encswap
/etc/rc.d/ccd
/etc/rc.d/swap1
/etc/rc.d/fsck

my guess is that it's hanging on fsck or possibly swap1.
