Err, are you saying @reboot did not work for you ? I though it's
enough to do

crontab -e

and enter something like

@reboot username cd /home/web2py && python web2py.py -i 192.168.0.200 -
p 8000 -a 'recycle'

(obvioudly you still have to start web2py manually the first time you
install it, but it should wake up just fine afterwards).
