Ah, this is much easier in Debian IMHO. Just set up your rules, then
say '/etc/init.d/iptables save active'. The iptables script will load
your rules at every boot. If you do not like this approach, then you can
move your rc.firewall-2.4 script into /etc/init.d/ and issue the
following command:
update-rc.d rc.firewall-2.4 start 40 2 3 4 5

Sorry then. It seems it runs only in single user mode, and not on other
runlevels. Anyway, I hope your problem is solved by now.
