I'd like to point out that the latter line will overwrite what was inside $pkg_scripts varible before that, so your example would only start mysqld. You need to use the format that Antoine gave or include the previous value of the variable when assigning: pkg_scripts="$pkg_scripts cupsd" # not really necessary on the first item pkg_scripts="$pkg_scripts mysqld" -- Antti Harri
