I am running:

lsxcatd -a
Version 2.7.5 (svn r14039, built Tue Oct 16 23:16:45 EDT 2012)
This is a Management Node
dbengine=SQLite

The node definition is:

lsdef n02
Object name: n02
    arch=x86_64
    bmc=n02-bmc
    currchain=boot
    currstate=boot
    groups=PCMAE_default
    initrd=xcat/rhels6.3/x86_64/initrd.img
    installnic=mac
    ip=172.29.10.2
    kcmdline=quiet repo=http://172.29.10.76/install/rhels6.3/x86_64/ 
ks=http://172.29.10.76/install/autoinst/n02 ksdevice=5c:f3:fc:b8:81:a0
    kernel=xcat/rhels6.3/x86_64/vmlinuz
    mac=5c:f3:fc:b8:81:a0
    mgt=ipmi
    netboot=xnba
    nfsserver=172.29.10.76
    os=rhels6.3
    postbootscripts=otherpkgs,setroute,configKVM.sh,configeth1,configeth2
    postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles,setupntp
    primarynic=mac
    profile=kvmhypv
    provmethod=install
    routenames=rdef,r172,r9,r192
    status=booted
    statustime=03-05-2013 16:04:53

and the order of running the postbootscripts from the mypostscript.post is

# postbootscripts-start-here
run_ps otherpkgs
run_ps configKVM.sh
run_ps configeth1
run_ps configeth2
run_ps setroute
# postbootscripts-end-here

As you can see, the order of the scripts running is changing between the 
definition and the postscript file.  I have a few other postscripts that I 
need to add in to this, but they are getting run out of order so I 
narrowed the set to try and determine what was changing the running 
sequence.

As far as otherpkgs, it is being picked up from the xcatdefaults

#node,postscripts,postbootscripts,comments,disable
"xcatdefaults","syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles","otherpkgs",,
"n02",,"setroute,configKVM.sh,configeth1,configeth2",,

What level of xCAT are you using?
Give us the output of lsdef n02

Also, you will see you already have otherpkgs from the defaults list so 
you
do not need it in your node's postboot list.

YOu should see something like the following
[root@hpcrhmn postscripts]# lsdef lissatest
Object name: lissatest
    groups=litest
    postbootscripts=otherpkgs,test1,test2,test3
    postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles


It should be running them in that order right to left.

So on my 2.7.1 system, from rcons

Wed Mar  6 12:15:12 EST 2013 Running postscript: otherpkgs
  Did not install any extra rpms.
Wed Mar  6 12:15:12 EST 2013 Running postscript: test1
Wed Mar  6 12:15:22 EST 2013 Running postscript: test2
Wed Mar  6 12:15:32 EST 2013 Running postscript: test3

Go on the node after the install installed  and look
in /xcatpost/mypostscript for this section at the bottom. This is the 
order
# postscripts-start-here
run_ps syslog
run_ps remoteshell
run_ps syncfiles
run_ps new_set
run_ps setbootfromnet
# postscripts-end-here
# postbootscripts-start-here
run_ps otherpkgs
run_ps test1
run_ps test2
run_ps test3
# postbootscripts-end-here
updateflag.awk $MASTER 3002 "installstatus booted"
