I can now ... I made it that far from when I typed the question and when you replied.
Now the script is runnable ... I can type (as root) "/etc/init.d/ startnotebook" and the server will spring to life. But, when I reboot, it does not work correctly. The nohup.out file is created, but is a zero length file. And the webbserver is not running ... nmap shows that port 8000 is not open. Since the script runs after booting, I'm thinking I now have a debian problem and not a sage problem. Not sure yet though.
