 SD> In Slackware, you could put it in /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
 SD> Out of curiosity, why are you needing to do this and reboot?

I have plenty of date oriented jobs that could benefit from linux, and afford
me a chunk of playtime to boot. I just need a way to start 'em and finish it
clean. Actually I would need a shutdown function not a reboot (g). Win 7 Pro
will start a Debian VM same time each day which does it's thing then
disappears. :)
