How do I run a bash script on startup? The script just disables the annoying audio buzz on some nforce2 motherboards (I have Asus A7N8X-Deluxe v2.0):

Code:

#!/bin/bash
setpci -H1 -s 0:0.0 6E=01
setpci -H1 -s 0:0.0 6F=9F

So, how to make the script run once during boot - but before login? I tried using "rc-update add..." but it didn't work. It added the script but during boot it complained about some dependecies. Apparently the above is not an "init script"?

PS. Can kernel do the fix by itself with a kernel option? Are there kernel options???

Yes, and make sure that the "local" service is run on startup.

Code:

rc-update add local default

Or whatever your default runlevel is called.
