i was not telling the truth

package/base-files/files/lib/preinit/80_mount_root

it depends on what kind of setup you have. on a !overlay setup /etc will
be available earlier. however after the 80_mount_root script executed,
/etc should be available on all setups, so probably best to hook it int
preinit as 81_urandom_seed ?
