So I had bought a preconfigured MiSTer, I decided to try just doing a fresh install on a new SD card with the newest versions of everything and it worked no problem. Thanks for the replies, still wondering what the issue was but happy to have it working as expected.

Thanks, this is what I have in the file:

#!/bin/sh

Startup MiSTer_SAM - Super Attract Mode

[[ -e /media/fat/Scripts/.MiSTer_SAM/MiSTer_SAM_init ]] && /media/fat/Scripts/.MiSTer_SAM/MiSTer_SAM_init $1

Startup BGM

[[ -e /media/fat/Scripts/bgm.sh ]] && /media/fat/Scripts/bgm.sh $1

So the BGM script won't start automatically after a reboot, is there something else I need to do to configure it? I'm having a similar issue with SAM, wondering if there's something basic I messed up that might interfere

Thanks I think everything is perhaps setup ok. I guess the issue is it won't start automatically when I plug the MiSTer in and it boots up from a power off state. Do I need to add it to to the init.d folder or something along those line so it starts everytime MiSTer powers up?
