Matt's solution is good - but it must have the same problem: > grep will be available at the same time as on_ac_power! > well, no, since grep lives in /bin. On startup, / get mounted read-only. Thats the only way fsck can be run. That means that you can use grep, and anything else livig in /bin. I personally have almost everything in one partition, so I can use on_acpi_power as well, but for the sake of speed, I prefer the grep method.
