Public bug reported:

The file /var/lib/urandom/random-seed is not being written in cloud-images
of ubuntu at 16.04.  Instead, the systemd provided service 
systemd-random-seed.service writes a random seed to
/var/lib/systemd/random-seed .

overlayroot needs to be made aware of the new location of the seed
file to provide the same function that it did previously by using
/var/lib/urandom/random-seed
