Hello list,

I have written two scripts that work together to locate all of the serially attached 
devices in a system (including a serial console) as well as determine how many serial 
ports the system has, then enable a login (via agetty) for all unused serial ports.

One of the scripts is a perl script and the other a BASH script.

I want these scripts to run during system startup but I am unsure where I should place 
them.

I have examined rc.sysinit, rc{runlevel}.d and rc.local and determined that they 
should probably be placed in either rc.sysinit or rc.local. However, when the scripts 
are placed in rc.local the system does not boot properly, that is it gets to the end 
of rc3.d (it has a default run level of 3) and goes no further. It is almost like it 
halts when executing the BASH script before any gettys have started on the virtual 
terminals.

Can anyone suggest how I may add these scripts to my system startup please?

Thanks.

Matthew Richards.
