Some more questions, I hope they get you closer to the solution:
- Is the second script called by the first via an absolute path or is /usr/local/bin in $PATH?
- Perform the scripts one time actions or do they start a process in the background?
- What happens if you only echo some text in script 1 and 2? (redirect the output to e.g. /tmp/boot.txt) Does it boot? What's in the output file?
- absolute path
- 2nd script detached with '&', and running a loop delayed by 'sleep'
- echo: need to check that out, when I get time to breathe (the next week or so will be tough on me - got to submit a thesis - hehe )

If you're interested, I could also post the scripts, as they are right now, to let you have a look at it... The functionality's basically there - it just lacks a way to be started at boot time

Thx & cheers!
