Write a script. put it in the /etc/init.d/ directory.
Lets say you called it FOO. You then run

% update-rc.d FOO defaults

You can check out 
% man update-rc.d for more information. It is a Debian utility to install 
scripts. The option "defaults" puts a link to start FOO in run levels 2, 3, 
4 and 5. (and puts a link to stop FOO into 0, 1 and 6.)

By the way, can anyone tell me what command I can use to tell what run level 
I am currently in?
