[yocto] How to change the startup application

[Liu, Song]

Thanks, Autif. I guess I missed the last word for the link, but it's strange that the page was there. Anyway, I deleted mine.

Hi Song,

I thought that I already updated the wiki. It seems like you created an extra page. "_scripts" is missing from the link. It should be there.

Source:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Category:FAQ

What I added days ago:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/FAQ:How_do_I_change_and_add_startup_scripts

What you added (which I think should be deleted):
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/FAQ:How_do_I_change_and_add_startup

Agree?
