Autoloading a particular driver, based on a detected specific kernel
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I need to write a script and determining its placement within Debian 7.9 filesystem. The script needs to be executed automatically on startup and, after checking what kernel is currently loaded (2.6.x vs. 3.2.x), unload the incorrect network driver, if loaded, and load the correct one. This question is the follow-up for my prior question and represents the only missing piece of that puzzle, as I've already figured out cross-kernel compiling of network driver by myself.
In terms of the location, I think that the script should be placed into "/etc/rcX.d" directories.

The location you guessed is nearly correct. But /etc/rcX.d directories usually contain only links to scripts in /etc/init.d/, so that a script only has to exist once but can be called at different runlevels.
