I'm trying to do some boot cycle testing, is it correct to just create a S*
script in /etc/rc3.d and put calls to my program in that?
is: i created an S99zzReset script in rc3.d so it would be the very last
one to get executed in run level 3 (i am only going to level 3 not to 4 or
5)
Is there anything special i need to do there? before i call my Reset test
program? do i treat it as "just another shell script"?
Thanks
Eric

Re: detect shell script language ... In the 'old' days, when a user typed in a command, the interactive shell would immediately pass it off to 'exec' to execute. ... So, on return from exec with an error status, the shell would fork a copy of itself to try and run the script.... As a result of the above, it was hard to tell whether the script was a Bourne shell or C shell, so the convention was introduced of using the Bourne shell no op command, as the first line in a Bourne shell script. ...
