maemo uses upstart for scripts running after boot.
For examples take a look at /etc/event.d/ scripts.

A strange way to run, does not resemble even bash, but if someone like me had problems even clearly described on http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html

Or you could do it the old fashioned way, by putting the script you want to run in /etc/init.d/, and the creating a link to it in /etc/rc2.d (default runlevel is 2, if I'm not mistaken).

I know Ubuntu has the upstart-compat-sysv package but Maemo doesn't have it. E.g. /etc/event.d/rc2 doesn't exist on my N900.

reading over this and trying a few things I still can't get this to do anything. I don't know Bumpkus about scripts!
I'm trying to start 3 appz everytime my N900 starts
Root xterm
Phone
Contacts
Can anybody give me some pointers.
I made a simple one line startup with the exec line for my root term and nothing started on boot. Placed it in /etc/event.d
