    I need to have a scheduler startup automatically on boot. Where do I add that function?

    You can add the command to do the startup to a system file called /etc/inittab. This is basically a list of commands to be executed given the run-level at which the system is started. The command to add an entry to it is mkitab. Do not edit /etc/inittab unless you are feeling very lucky. If you render this file syntactically bogus your system will not boot and you'll get an unscheduled chance to practice your recovery skills:-)
