DESCRIPTION
     The /etc/sysctl.conf file is read in when the system goes into multi-user
     mode to set default settings for the kernel.  The /etc/sysctl.conf is in

You want it to happen before the system goes multiuser, hence putting
/sbin/sysctl right at the start of /etc/rc

Unless you see the <old-modes>, -> <new-modes> line, it isn't actually
happening.

I have it as the first non-comment in /etc/rc on my laptop (the only
IDE disk machine I have) and it works for me.

P.
