I create a lock file in my @reboot script that checks to see if it is an
actual reboot. I put it in the beginning of the script and just exit if
it isn't a reboot, or create the lock file if it is a reboot. This is
what I use:
#---------------------
# lock to make sure it doesn't run again
if [ ~/data/cron_lock -nt /var/run/boot_time ]; then
exit 0 # already run
fi
mkdir -p ~/data
touch ~/data/cron_lock
#---------------------
I hope that helps.
