Debian uses /etc/rc3.d type directories also. But the files in these
/etc/rc#.d directories are symbolic links back to scripts in /etc/init.d.

Look at the /etc/init.d/README file, the /etc/init.d/skeleton file, and the
Debian Policy Manual chapter 3.4. (/usr/doc/debian-policy, from the
debian-policy package)
