S98configure role

["l.bolognini@tiscali.it" <l.bolognini@tiscali.it>]

I'm wondering what is the role of this script, placed in /etc/rcS.d.

What I guess is that, for some reasons, some packages get installed but 
not configured (then unpacked) since their postinstall script returns 
non zero value.
Here it is a small extract of rootfs_ipk.bbclass:

for 
i in ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}${libdir}/opkg/info/*.postinst; do
                
if [ -f $i ] && ! sh -e $i configure; then
                        opkg-
cl ${IPKG_ARGS} flag unpacked `basename $i .postinst`
                
fi
done

For example, in my beagleboard, I get udev unpacked because 
udev-cache can't be found in /etc/init.d (sounds strange, it's there!).

Then udev remain unpacked but the magic S98configure heals udev, 
adjusting all stuff.
But, here is my question, what about the very 
first boot? Do I have a first boot without udev-cache?
Unfortunately at 
the moment I haven't the chance to investigate and burn a SD card and 
can't go further, however I'm very interested to listen to your 
opinions.

Thank you,
bye,
Luca
