In order for this to work you need to follow a template based on LSB init scripts. If you would like to run your script at boot, simply put the full path in the boot.local file. If you want to make it an init script, rewrite the script to follow the same preprocess header style as the other suse init scripts.
It would be simpler to put it into the boot.local. Do realize, that if your script needs parameters from a real user's environment, that you will need to source those into your script's environment.

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.

script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
