What is the recommended place to put something analogous to a bsd rc.local
script? There are a couple of housekeeping chores I'd like to do that don't
seem to fit into anything under /etc/init.d.
Thanks.

endless stream of error messages when I try to boot. Here's what I
get (repeated until I reboot):
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k binfmt-464c,errno=8
