Query about directly booting up application in EVM OMAPL137

Hi,

I am currently working on EVM OMAPL137 board & using Linux as the OS.

In our end product, we directly want to boot our application after Linux boots up.

I have tried calling a script single_user from rc5.d but it was not executing the script

Can anyone provide me procedure of how to start application after Linux boots up.

 

Thanks & Regards

Jitendra

  • I usually use the inittab file to start applications on bootup. I don't have my notes in front of me to give you the exact syntax. Lots of reference on the internet. Use the "once" attribute for testing and development. If you need to you can kill the application at the console. Use "respawn" for production only. This mode makes it difficult to replace the executable file. The kernel wil restart the application automatically.
