DO NOT attempt it at home but this works, sort of. The idea here is that somebody competent will clean it up and post a more kosher version.

-----------------------------

In file /etc/osso-af-init/real-af-startup insert this:

Code:
/usr/bin/browser &
in this section:

Code:
 ....
  else
    if [ -x $AF_INIT_DIR/startup-wizard.sh ]; then
      source $AF_INIT_DIR/startup-wizard.sh start
    fi
    
    /usr/bin/browser &

    # Give Backup a chance to finish restoring task
    if [ -f $HOME/.osso-backup/last-restore.xml ]; then
  ....
I say sort of because a) I have not tested it extensively b) some browser startup parameters are missing and I don't know where they are c) the task is put in the background and I'm not sure this is the proper thing to do. But this works nevertheless, n800 boots and starts the browser automatically.
