I don't know much about linux and startups but I think you should never use srcds as root?

You should be fine running srcds in a cron type mode if that particular user has access to the files required to run it.

crontab -e

add:

@reboot cd /path/to/srcds; ./srcds_run +cmdlineoptionshere

Save it and reboot and see what happens.
