Perhaps someone considers it "deprecated", but the script
ally, this would have been done in rc.local but that's been
deprecated and now it seems that /etc/rc.boot/ has been deprecated as
well.
Would someone be so kind as to tell me what the current, preferred
location for such commands is?

Nothing. I guess it just appeared to me as being weird since I never
actually touched /etc/rc?.d directories on Debian...

So create a sin
/etc/init.d/rcS says that /etc/rc.boot is run only for
compatibility. What's the Debian standard for rc.local/rc.boot now?
Please don't make me write init.d scripts for every single line
I need.
/etc/inittab and /etc/cron.d:@reboot are not really options...

The printer should have no problems with manpages. And if you use
'man -t blabla' you even get nice postscript output.

Oh haha, the parameter is actually called "-m" ("macro"), the "an" is an

Well you can do something like this:

What's the story with /etc/rc.boot/? Is it deprecated? Is it good?
Should its files be run by /etc/inittab via /etc/rcS? The contents
of my /etc/rc.boot:
0setserial* hdparm* kbd* update-modules*
-chris
I have /etc/init.d/boot.OLD and /etc/rc.boot/0setserial.pre-2.15.
Can I safely remove them?
Are files that dpkg -S reports that they are not found can be safely removed?
[11:12:47 /tmp]$ dpkg -S /etc/init.d/boot.OLD
dpkg: /etc/init.d/boot.OLD not found.
