/etc/init.d/README
/usr/doc/sysvinit/README.runlevels.gz
man update-rc.d

Basically, copy the script to /etc/init.d/, name it "fw", "firewall" or
something you like and then run update-rc.d over it.
update-rc.d creates the symbolic links from /etc/rc.d/rc[0-6S]/ to the
actual script, which should be placed in /etc/init.d/.
That's how I did it, anyway.
Be sure to check out the mentioned docs.
