I have a background process that I'd like to run at boot. On Linux I'd typically do this with systemd, but obviously that's not an option. I know init.d can handle launching things, but it seems like most people use udev rules to run their background processes.

What are the different options I have to launch background processes at boot, and what are the pros/cons of each option?
