PKG_RCD_SCRIPTS has to be set to YES for it to do anything at all. the
correct way to have them placed in your preferred directory is to set
RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR, as salo pointed out. this ensures that they are
installed and removed correctly, whether you are building from source
or building binary packages.

this is separate from how you start them. you can start them however
you like, but it differs per platform as each platform has a different
way of invoking things on bootup.

grant.
