Daniel,

Thanks for the quick reply.  The Debian image TS provides for the
quickboot SD card is version 3.1 "sarge". By default, there is no
rc.local in /etc/init.d nor in /etc.

After digging around some about the /etc/init.d scripts, I found the
manpage for update-rc.d.

I copied the sample skeleton script to lincan.sh then modified it to
start up the lincan-ts-11.o module.  I then used

   # update-rc.d lincan.sh defaults

to get my script hooked into the init process.  That seems to work.

Again, thanks for the pointer.

Ben
