Bill, what kind of linux are you running? Knowing what distro would be
helpful.

Over here I'm a tad bit spoiled with OpenLinux 3.1 and 3.1.1. As for
reordering the startup scripts...

You could visit /etc/rc.d and look over the directories that contain links
to /etc/rc.d/init.d. These directories represent the various startup
levels specified in /etc/inittab. By reordering the linksi in those
directories, the the various startup scripts will run as specified.
Remember, lower numbered links are run before higher numbered ones. So a
S10link would run before S11link... even if both links point to the same
startup script.

Cheers.
