A basic method I use is to run things from /etc/rc.local. Any program
called from /etc/rc.local will get run at system startup.

It's a file, not a directory. Just try it:

echo touch /tmp/testRClocal > /etc/rc.local

and reboot the system. You should see the newly created file
/tmp/testRClocal when you login into the running system.

What did you write into those files? which OS version are you running?
Need more detail to help you.
Most new systems use systemd rather than the old SysV /etc/rc* files,
so this may not work (but /etc/rc.local is actually emulated by
systemd so that should be OK).

crontab log can be specified if your /etc/rc.local is not existent or executed.

depend on you linux distro also have a look like /etc/init.d/
