Freeos and netbsd ain't Linux!
/sbin/init (from sysvinit) is started by the kernel when it's finished
its boot-up actions and init only runs those things it's told to run by
/etc/inittab.
On a regular LFS system, that means whatever /etc/rc.d/init.d/rc does.
In inittab you'll find this line:
si::sysinit:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc sysinit
and that's all there is to it!
If you want local.rc to run (or anything else, for that matter), do what
Dan says.
