Add custom script at startup

It's possible to add a custom script at startup?     It's very easy actually... that's possible by using chkconfig command, but there's another choice? as example using the bigstart command...

Ok...

Now i'm using this file to launch the script at startup, I've just added the next line: 

/bin/log_to_file &

Without the ampersand the BIG-IP hangs-up at boot because the script is an infinite loop to send the content of a file to another.

With the ampersand it boots correctly but executing "ps -fea" command the script is not in the list, but obviously is executed at startup (because of the "hang" without the &)

Anybody knows what's wrong with this?

Thanks
