Re: Dosemu ?

 
dunno about debian, but on gentoo the place for these types of things is in:
 
    /etc/conf.d/local.start
 
part of mine is similar to what you're doing, twiddling /proc at boot for pre-2.6 apps:
 
    echo "wolfsp.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
    echo "glquake 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
