need help with wimax intel 5150 (need to change debian scripts)

hi all, i have asus eee pc 1003hag with intel wifi/wimax 5150 module.
i've compiled driver and all tools like describes in here http://linuxwimax.org/pipermail/wimax/2 … 00469.html but without instructions for 64bit system. also i have used this howto (warning, howto is in russian lang) - http://community.livejournal.com/yota_ru/270575.html
problem is with daemons - they setup in /etc/init.d and they don't want to start.
thats the errors

[taz@taz-eee ~]$ sudo /etc/init.d/wimax start
Starting WiMAX Network Service: /etc/init.d/wimax: line 27: daemon: command not found

lets take a look at them

#!/bin/bash
#
#   /etc/rc.d/init.d/wimaxd
#
#   description: start/stop the wimax daemon
DESC_APPSRV="WiMAX Network Service"
NAME=wimax
BINPATH=/usr/local/bininit.d
DAEMON=$BINPATH/$BINNAME
BINNAME=wimaxd
VARRUNPATH=/var/run
DAEMONSCRIPTDIR=/etc//
PIDFILE=$VARRUNPATH/$BINNAME.pid
SCRIPTNAME=$DAEMONSCRIPTDIR/$NAME
init.d
DAEMON=$BINPATH/$BINNAME
# Source function library.
. /etc/init.d/functions

start() {
    
    echo -n "Starting WiMAX Network Service: "
    if [ -f $PIDFILE ]; then
        PID=`cat $PIDFILE`
        echo -e "\n$DESC_APPSRV is already running:$PID"
        exit 2;
    else
        daemon $BINPATH/$BINNAME
        RETVAL=$?
        echo
        [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/$BINNAME
        sleep 5
    fi
}   

stop() {
    echo -n "Shutting down WiMAX Network Service:"
    killproc -p $PIDFILE
    RETVAL=$?
    echo
    [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/$BINNAME  
    rm -f $PIDFILE
}
   
case "$1" in
    start)
        start
    ;;
    stop)
        stop
    ;;
    status)
       echo -n "$DESC_APPSRV"
       status -p $PIDFILE
    ;;
    *)
    echo "Usage: $SCRIPTNAME {start|stop|status}" >&2
        exit 1
    ;;
esac
exit $?

"daemon" is available in AUR if you can't hack up the init script, maybe it would magically work out ?

# yaourt -S daemon

I'd try getting it started up via CLI first to make sure it works before trying to get the init scripts in order though. Good luck!

rewritten. Needs testing.
