Sure, but why do that? Why not use the mechanisms, that Gentoo
forsees for this?
I thought that was the purpose of that file, to run stuff you want to
on bootup.
That's not how I see the file. For me, the file is there to do stuff,
for which there's no "proper" way.
Gentoo is the only distribution I have seen use that particular file, so
I consider it one of the "proper" ways to do things I can't figure out
otherwise.
There is usually more than one way to "skin a cat" in Linux.
