take the agetty program from a normal Linux dist. and put the following
line into /etc/inittab
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -n -l /bin/autologon.sh 9600 tty1
where /bin/autologon.sh is your personal start script. This script is
#!/bin/sh
#/bin/autologon.sh
echo "autologon ..."
. /etc/profile
cd /
if test -f $AUTO_LOGON_SCRIPT ; then
# /bin/su -c $AUTO_LOGON_SCRIPT $AUTO_LOGON_USER
/bin/sh --login -c $AUTO_LOGON_SCRIPT
else
echo "could not find $AUTO_LOGON_SCRIPT -> starting shell"
/bin/sh --login
fi
if $AUTO_LOGON_SCRIPT is set it is executed with user $AUTO_LOGON_USER
