Hello Dhara,

You can create a systemd service that starts a python script on boot-up.
Please, check this post for more information.

Best regards,

Hi Kemal,

I have TI AM4376 EVM board- TMDSEVM437X (www.ti.com/.../tmdsevm437x which already has its boot-able SD card with its library files and SDK installed.

I want to add my script along with this SDK in the SD card and load it in the EVM board. To start with this I have written a basic code to print "hello world".

How can I do this..??

Regards,
Dhara

Paste this on your terminal, then examine what it does:

cat << EOM > /lib/systemd/system/dhara.service
[Unit]
Description=Dhara
Before=serial-getty@ttyO2.service

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python /home/root/dhara.py
StandardOutput=journal+console

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOM
cat << EOM > /home/root/dhara.py
print("Hello World!")
EOM

chmod 644 /lib/systemd/system/dhara.service
chmod 755 /home/root/dhara.py
systemctl enable dhara.service
systemctl daemon-reload
ls
