This means the script has execute permissions, right?

The directory to always execute at boot time should be /etc/rcS.d. Typo?

Is there any other link starting with S45? There is one in my system. It
should perhaps work even if, but you could try using an available number

Also, try running the script from the rcS.d symlink instead of from its
actual path. Does it still work/not work?
