So far I've tried adding a script to /etc/event.d using the "start on startup" event, creating a script in rc2.d and rcS, none of which have any effect.
If I run the same script manually after boot, then all works nicely.
Anyone got any clues what I'm doing wrong?

I have my own scripts which does host of things including this settings.

just copy and paste the rcS-late to whichevever you want. keep it in /etc/event.d

now here is the main thing to remember. Do not repeat do not make any typos in the script as for me some how when I have given dirty__ instead of dirty_ the script stopped going forward hence all settings were not coming through.

I modified this error and rebooted and voila all my settings are taking in to effect.
