Not really, see /etc/init.d/urandom.
So far known locations on Linux distributions are:
- /var/lib/random-seed (Fedora < F20, RHEL)
- /var/lib/systemd/random-seed (Fedora F20+, recent systemd)
- /var/lib/urandom/random-seed (Debian)
- /var/lib/misc/random-seed (SuSE)
(derivated distros are not included, but can be infered)
