custom cooling script

nidico100 · December 5, 2017 at 1:04 PM

Hey,

I have a dual boot system with LibreELEC and Recalbox. In Recalbox i'm calling in /etc/init.d/ a script with

Python

#!/usr/bin/python
import subprocess
try:
    subprocess.Popen(["/bin/sh","/recalbox/scripts/activecooling/acrecalbox.sh"])
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    print "Quit"

Now I want to know where I can call the script under LibreELEC.

I used OSMC before and there I didn't get it running, so I hope under LibreELEC it's possible for me.

Thanks in advance.

Code

echo "(sleep 10 && /bin/bash /path/to/acrecalbox.sh)&" > /storage/.config/autostart.sh

^ something like that should work, depending on what acrecalbox.sh contains?

This is acrecalbox.sh:

  exit 1
}

echo $$ >&9

echo "running as $$"
sleep 5
echo "finished $$"
