By "LDM start script" do you mean the script to be run when the
computer reboots in order to start the LDM? If so, then the boot-time
script in question should go in the /etc/init.d directory
(assuming it exists). I believe the script can then be added via the
chkconfig(8) utility:
sudo chkconfig ldm
where "ldm" refers to the file /etc/init.d/ldm.
Note that the template script must be modified to work with chkconfig(8).
