No Mark. Unless some package manager changes it, and I don't believe I have observed that occurrence yet, whatever you put into the rc.local file, which is executed as a system function before you are logged in, and stays there till the drive *upchucks. I have about 15 or 20 things in my rc.local file. Heyu, fetchmail, setting env stuff and other such background tasks are prime candidates for an entry in rc.local. *I think drive failures are like asking if new cement is going to crack, wrong question.
