So now we have an application in the non volatile memory on the target that is allowed to be executed. The next and
last step is to make it bootable by default after power up. During boot process the script inittab is called. This script
looks for a script named
startup
in the directory
/ash.
The linux will execute its content on every boot. Therefore we need to add the programcall in that script. Below is an
example shown, how this can be done from the commandline on the reader:
root@UHF-RFID-Dev:~# echo >> /ash/startup
root@UHF-RFID-Dev:~# echo # now lets start the application >> /ash/startup
root@UHF-RFID-Dev:~# echo /ash/application >> /ash/startup
The rst line adds a newline into the startup-File, the second adds a comment to it. The third line calls the application.
When you need to modify the script, take use an editor that can handle Unix line breaks at the end of each line (0x0A),
the normal windows carriage return and linefeed in the script won’t work.
