You should never add links manually, instead create an init script based on LSB (see /etc/init.d/skeleton) and use insserv or chkconfig or use boot.local instead. Anas Ness, Todd wrote:

I have a custom rpm that installs during my autoinstall. It installs /etc/init.d/rc5.d/S95startscript during the reboots and final system configuration the link gets renamed to /etc/init.d/rc5.d/S01startscript this is a problem as it needs to start later in the boot process. Does anybody have an explanation as to why this happens.

Oh, by the way, I fix the links in a post install script, and they still get changed after that.
