Hi all

I found /etc/rc.local is almost the last script called at boot up.

There is nothing inside in rc.local file. For what purpose we need rc.local fille ?

# cat /etc/rc.local 
#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.


touch /var/lock/subsys/local

# cat /etc/issue
