 On my box, 

1) I put this script in /etc/init.d/

=== fr_setup.sh ========================================================
#!/bin/bash

echo 'Starting french setup: fr_setup (Phil)'

cd /root/set_keys

./loadkeys.pl ./map.fr
========================================================================


2) in /etc/rc*.d, I make a link to the script fr_setup.sh :

************************************************************************
        cd /etc/rc2.d/
        ln -s ../init.d/fr_setup.sh S99fr_setup
************************************************************************


3) And I put the loadkeys.pl and map.* in the /root/set_keys directory
You can put this files elsewhere, but that works fine like this for me :)
