Let's say 300 bits.
I'm assuming a bootloader can't collect more in three seconds than an OS can collect in multiple minutes. Is that assumption wrong?
If it's the design of the code that lets it collect entropy faster, then it's that code that needs to be ported, and it doesn't matter if it's in a bootloader or not except to save a second or two.
