It's like Miquel says: it might work, but it's wrong. Don't do it. Just create a file in /etc/init.d; call it anything you want. /etc/init.d/local would be appropriate. Put in it the stuff you want to start during boot. Then run "update-rc.d" to set up the links in /etc/rc2.d. Don't edit /etc/init.d/netbase -- that's wrong too. You're free to do whatever you want with your own system of course, but you will make it harder for yourself later.
