i tried to turn off my discrete graphics by writing a script :

sudo chown username /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
sudo chown username /sys/kernel/debug/
echo OFF > sudo chown username /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch

the script worked fine but when i tried to run in on boot by adding it in
update-rc.d file
i cant boot into my system anymore. the system freezes on startup. i placed
the script.sh file in init.d folder.

i changed file permissions :

chmod 777 /etc/init.d/off_discrete.sh

& created a symlink to /etc/rc.d/

ln -s /etc/init.d/off_discrete.sh /etc/rc.d/


i can get into root terminal through elementary OS recovery mode but i cant
remove the entry from system startup. can someone plz help. Plz tell me why
this happened and how can i fix the issue in future. and how to reverse the
process so that i can boot again.
