I think case is important here: S20setleds should work.

Also, convention is to put the script in /etc/init.d and make it
executable (chmod +x somescript) and then sym-link to it from the
run-level directories you want the script to run under.

In /etc/rc2.d do:

ln -s /etc/init.d/somescript S20somescript

Or, use update-rc.d for an easier way to add/remove scripts from
various run-level directories.
