Are you sure the scripts are not running?  What makes you say so?

There is a 'console' jumper on the board...  It sets where system
messages go.  If it is set to ttyAM0, then all of our startup messages
go there regardless of what you say in inittab...

If you do not want a console, RTFM to find out what jumpers to set. 
Then comment out all references to ttyAM? in inittab...

FWIW, you don't need to reboot after changing inittab; just issue kill
-1 1 from the command line.  If you are running a busybox init, you
wil have to kill the getty processes by hand; the init shipped with
the TS root fs should take care of that for you....
