Generally you put boot-time scripts into /etc/init.d/ with symlinks from 
/etc/c2.d/S*

But if all you want is to be certain that it _does_ get run after every boot 
(ie, you're not concerned that it runs every day from cron, anyway) then you 
don't need to do anything.   anacron always ensures that everything in 
/etc/cron.daily that has been missed runs about 5 minutes after booting.
