My first guess is that there is a "-d" somewhere in one of the files in the /etc/rc.config.d directory that shouldn't be there.

 

Try doing:

# cd /etc/rc.config.d

# grep "-d" *

 

See what that returns.

Quoting the "-d" won't help.  You need: grep -e -d *

You are correct.  Or you could just escape the "-d"

# grep "\-d" *

 The entire directory (/etc/rc.config.d) content is executed many times during bootup, so you cannot have any temporary or junk files there. Start by seeing what has recently changed: 

# ls -lrt /etc/rc.config.d

 New and recently changed files will appear at the bottom of this listing.
Check to see if there is a file named:  -d
If there is , you'll have to remove it like this: rm -- -d

If that isn't the problem, then one of the files that has been recently added or edited is the culprit. Look in these files for -d which is the error source.
