It is possible to boot directly into Freevo. This option will be mainly used by those who wish to use Freevo as a stand alone media box. To do so you should be familiar with Linux runlevels and how the startup process works for your specific distribution.
First you will need to create a script that starts freevo and does any resultion settings, module configs, etc. Once you have created the script put it in your distributions startup script directory (/etc/init.d in Debian). After that you need to link it to the correct runlevel. Here is an example in Debian:
[user@host]$ cd /etc/rc2.d [user@host]$ ln ../init.d/freevo S98freevo
Your default runlevel may change as well as where you want your Freevo startup script to run within that runlevel. Change to suite your specific needs/distro.
