The "&&" is a control operator that tells the shell to only execute the
following command if the preceeding one worked.
The "\" is to ignore the newline character (Enter key) so that you can type
the command on multiple lines.

Once the scripts have been copied you need to run linuxconf and set the
scripts to startup on bootup.
you can start it manually untill you work this out by doing this:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/lcdd start && \
/etc/rc.d/init.d/lcdproc start

ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/lcdd /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S95lcdd && \

ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/lcdproc /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K95lcdproc && \
echo "Done"


That should do the job.
