[PROPOSAL] Directories for local initialization scripts
To accommodate local initialization scripts in Debian, one must add these
scripts in /etc/init.d and update-rc.d. Thus scripts installed by packages
and local scripts to share the same directories.
I propose the creation of some directories to hold the local initialization
scripts and separate them from the initialization scripts installed by
packages. One possible approach would be to use /usr/local/etc/init.d or
/etc/rc.local to contain scripts to be executed after all the scripts in
/etc/rc?.d and /usr/local/etc/rcS.d or /etc/rcS.local to contain scripts to
be executed just after the scripts in /etc/rcS.d (to allow hardware
configuration, for example).
