The first main bootscript is the /etc/init.d/rc script. Create a new file /etc/init.d/rc containing the following:
cat > rc << "EOF"
#!/bin/sh
# Begin /etc/init.d/rc
#
# By Jason Pearce - jason.pearce@linux.org
# Modified by Gerard Beekmans - gerard@linuxfromscratch.org
# print_error_msg based on ideas by Simon Perreault - nomis80@yahoo.com
#
# Include the functions declared in the /etc/init.d/functions file
#
source /etc/init.d/functions
#
# The print_error_msg function prints an error message when an unforseen
# error occured that wasn't trapped for some reason by a evaluate_retval
# call or error checking in different ways.
print_error_msg()
