Something like this should work:
void OnStart()
{
CheckPoint ("", "", "Credits", "", "");
}
void Credits(string &in asName, int alCount)
{
StartCredits("name_of_music.ogg", true, "name_of_text_category", "name_of_text_entry", 5);
}
name_of_music.ogg = name of the music file you want to be played
name_of_text_category = name of category in the lang file
name_of_text_entry = name of entry in the lang file
Hope that helped!

Assuming the grunt is the only thing capable of killing the player, this will work fine. Checkpoint is similar to adding a callback under OnStart; it triggers its own function (in this case "Credits"). The first time the player dies, the function "Credits" will be used.
As for you question about the missing strings in the CheckPoint function, I'm still not 100% sure what the game needs for it to work, so here is a version of it with none of the arguments filled out:
CheckPoint (string& asName, string& asStartPos, string& asCallback, string& asDeathHintCat, string& asDeathHintEntry);
Keep in mind it is okay to leave certain arguments blank (just leave 2 quotation marks: ""); like I said before, I'm not sure which ones are okay, so you will have to do some trial & error.
