Well, then target the master script with the "wait for completion" 
script and use that in a "wait"-mode run-level 0 entry in inittab. In a 
cursory examination, I don't see any mention of a timeout in the init 
or inittab manual pages. Of course, I could have missed it or it may 
exist and not be mentioned there.

I'd give it a try, though.
