if I make my own script flush in /etc/init.d
(with a soft-link in /etc/init.d/rc5.d:
ln -s …/flush S98flush )
If I run it from the command prompt, it’s OK
when booting nothing is done from that script (i.e. no /tmp/flush_entered file created)
What wrong?
#!/bin/sh
case “$1” in
start)
echo flush >/tmp/flush_entered
if -f /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules ]; then
cp /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules /tmp/70-persistent-net.rules
else
echo “/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules not found” >/tmp/70-persistent-net.rules.message
fi
cat </dev/null >/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

In Solaris I do not need to do that (there is no chkconfig command) and can create my own scripts (as in the example) and have them executed as such at boot…
Everything else looks okay, so I assume you’re not booting to runlevel
5. Follow the comments from the other poster… they are good. You
apparently know you are using opensuse as you posted in the opensuse
forums… Linux Is Not UniX. Things are very similar, but not exactly
the same. chkconfig helps control services in a simpler way than I’ve
found in Solaris (granted, I am not a Solaris expert by any stretch of
the imagination). Similarly /etc/init.d/skeleton is made to create
these scripts that work well with the way Linux does things. With that
said your way should be fine, but just realize that it’s not the “Linux”
way, or at least not the SUSE way in this case.
So anyway, are you sure you’re at runlevel 5? Use the ‘runlevel’
command to find out. If you aren’t then be sure to put your softlink
int he appropriate directory for the runlevel you are using.
Good luck.
