just put it in
/etc/rc.d/rc.local
its simple and it works ;-)
if you even so want to use an System V script
you will have to create the dirs
/etc/rc.d/init.d
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/
copy the script to init.d and create the links in rc3 and rc5.
i would recopmend you using the rc.local just invoke your script.
cheers
