Run Execute Shell Script While System Booting Startup

1)After write the shell script we have to place that shell script under /etc/init.d/.
2)Then add the following line to that shell script at the begining
#!/bin/bash
# chkconfig: 2345 95 20
# description: Some description
3)add into chkconfig
#chkconfig --add shellscript.sh
NOTE: if we did STEP:2) then only we can add using chkconfig
4)chkconfig shellscript.sh on

CONFIRMATION: To check if we go to /etc/rc.d/
we have 6 run runlevel script directory
rc0.d rc1.d rc2.d rc3.d rc4.d rc5.d rc6.d
if go to that direcotry we can see the shell scrip name with "S" & "K"
S indicate start the script when it boots up,
K metion down cleanly when it is going shut down
Soft Link syntax
ln -s [SOURCE FILE] [DESTINATION FILE]
For Manual Adding.
ln -s /etc/init.d/script-daemon-name /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S50cript-daemon-name
ln -s /etc/init.d/script-daemon-name /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/K50script-daemon-name
