I adapted the script for debian:
-->START SCRIPT<--
#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO

# Required-Start: $remote_fs $time
# Required-Stop: umountnfs $time

### END INIT INFO

# PATH should only include /usr/* if it runs after the mountnfs.sh script
PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin

SCRIPTNAME=/etc/init.d/$NAME

case "$1" in

echo "created /etc/log-skel.tgz";

start)
/bin/tar xzf /etc/log-skel.tgz --keep-old-files --absolute-names;
echo -n "create log skeleton in tmpfs"

# dummy stop section
stop)
echo -n "ha ha, brainless tmpfs";
;;
# usage:

echo "Usage: $0 {start|create}";
exit 1

esac
-->END SCRIPT<--

sudo update-rc.d boot.localfs-tmp start 01 2 3 4 5 .
