Want to run something on startup? Put a debugchumby file in the root directory of a USB drive: /mnt/usb/debugchumby is a shell script run on startup.

Tips

  • debugchumby should have no file extension (debugchumby.txt will *not* work)
  • use UNIX-style linefeeds
    • On Windows, try NotePad or EditPad Pro (http://www.editpadpro.com/ ).
    • On Mac, you can use TextEdit (you MUST choose PlainText in the Format menu). Or via the Mac commandline (i.e. Terminal), you can use vi, pico, emacs, etc...
    • On UNIX/linux, or via the Mac commandline (i.e. Terminal), you can use vi, pico, emacs, etc...
    • The chumby also has a lightweight version of vi built in.
