How to run sample Node.js App automatically startup mLinux?

You can use update-rc.d to install a script to run at startup.

Eduardo,

To start an app automatically on boot you can write an init.d script. There are several examples of these types of scripts that start various programs on boot in the /etc/init.d directory. Once you have created your script to start/stop/restart your Node.js App, you can create a soft link in the /etc/rc*.d directory/directories to your start script. Usually the typical run level is run level 5, so you would want to add your soft link to the /etc/rc5.d directory.
