Jim,

Hopefully you made sure mytest is executable (chmod +x).  If you have then I
would suggest putting some debug statements in it to make sure it's actually
being invoked, or just put a "set -x" command right after the #!/bin/bash
statement.

Subject: Changing system values at boot.


I would like to change certain system values at boot. I've put a simple bash
script in /etc/init.d/mytest and linked to it in /etc/init.d/rc3
  ln -s ../mytest S99mytest
and I've run
   /usr/lib/lsb/install_initd /etc/init.d/mytest
but the oritinal values persist after boot.

The script makes a simple change to bdflush parameters and can be
successfully
run manually from /etc/init.d.

Any suggestions?
