How to make a start up script?
 
hello can anyone tell me how to make a start up script?
my nokia n900 internal memory card is damaged (that is what i have been said) so every time i reboot my n900 i have to go to x terminal and run the swapon on command as root....
can anyone tell me how to make it so that every time i reboot my phone it automatically makes the swap on my sd card?
this is the script i use
swapon /dev/mmcblk1p2

thanks

Put in file /etc/event.d/relocate-swap

--------------------------------------------
Code:
description "blah-blah-blah.."
author "Your Name here"

console output

start on started rcS-late

script
        swapoff /dev/mmcblk0p3
        swapon /dev/mmcblk1p2
end script
-------------------------------------


... and reboot N900

Maemo uses upstart, so that's why the syntax is required in the script.
