as root user during boot sequence (last boot sequence script file).
Could you please tell me how I can do that?
there are lots of scripts in /etc/rc.d
which run level you want your script to be executed during, put your script in /etc/rc.d/rcXXXX.d/yourscript
The above is NOT a good solution. You should never change yourself things in the rc?.d directories.
When you have just a few statements there are three places where you can add them:
-
in /etc/init.d/boot.local. This one does allready exist and is executed very early in the startup process, directly after boot and before you reach any of the normal runlevel scripts.
-
in /etc/init.d/before.local. This one is to be created by you and according to the documentation in /etc/initd/rc
# Start the user defined resource control script which
# should be executed _before_ runlevel is entered.
- in /etc/init.d/after.local. This one is to be created by you and according to the documentation in /etc/initd/rc
# Start the user defined resource control script which
# should be executed _after_ runlevel is reached.
Do NOT make it a complete script (starting with a shebang) and do not make them executable. They will be ‘sourced’ by the mother script. Thus just add your statements in them.
When it is a more elaborate script that contains sections for start/stop/restart you should make a complete script using /etc/init.d/skeleton as a template.

And it will be deleted automatically.
