If you are a bit familliar with sh scripts this will explain everything. (Else you will learn a lot from it.) At the end it runs the rc.local script (if it exists), where you can put your own programs. It also runs all the programs in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ . I don't know if this is all about it, but it's a good start.
