How to Run a Command at Every Bootup? - leegold - 04-18-2014
Somewhat of a general question, using LinuxLite and want to have a command executed when ever the system boots. It's not a "root command", does not need sudo when I do it from the terminal. From my memory since I'm not at that computer the command is:
djmount /home/linuxlite/av
it just connects to a Upnp server and gets the media. Be nice if it did that at boot. How to do this automatically at boot?
Thanks.

Hello!
Unless someone suggests a better way, you could add it to your /etc/rc.local file. Of course, you'll have to edit this file as root, using nano or the text editor.
In a terminal window [CTRL-ALT-T],
Code:
sudo nano /etc/rc.localshould allow you to execute that command at startup...

Just make sure it looks like this
Code:
#!/bin/sh -e
#
# rc.local - executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel
#
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
all the stuff you wanna run up there...yadda yadda
exit 0Or it might hang
