Hello,
Is there an easy way to start a photon application at boot time ( without
login ), in full screen size and no possibility to switch to another
application. When the user closes this application, a shutdown is
automatically done.
Thanks
Pascal
Is there an easy way to start a photon application at boot time ( without

Run Helpviewer and check out the section, “Configuring Photon”/
“Environment Variables” followed by “Booting Directly into Photon”
Place the exported declarations in the sysinit file before starting Photon.
For example,
Bypass Login
export LOGNAME=XXXXX
Disable Exit from Photon
export PHEXIT_DISABLE=1
Disable the Desktop Manager
export PHPDM_DISABLE=1
Thanks

Bypassing Login in this way effectively logs the user in
as “System”.

I once tried to boot into Photon directly to bypass the login with such
enviroments at rc.sysinit as-
export LOGNAME=root
export HOME=/root
… …
it turns out that though system boots to Photon directly, but the working
path is not /root and utilites are not in the path.
Would you please help?
Thanks.
