 <p>
 This step has to be done on every partition where quotas are enabled. After 
-adding and configuring the quota files, we need to add a script to the run 
-level that turns quotas on every time we boot. Copy and paste the following 
-script to a file called <path>/etc/init.d/quotas</path>. Simply create the 
-file (it does not exist) and make it executable.
+adding and configuring the quota files, we need to add the <c>quoates</c> script
+to the default runlevel.
