First I would run bfgminer as you stated above, then once its started type S to display the settings, then type W to write a config file.  This should save it for you so next time all you have to do is just start bfgminer without the -S all afterwards (I could be wrong, never done it that way, but seems like what you would do).

Now, auto starting is the next step. I know this works for Minepeon, but I dont know about Raspbian, but they are similar so why not give it a try.

Try:

sudo systemctl enable bfgminer.service
sudo systemctl start bfgminer.service

Reboot and see if that works.  I

I did the first step, but "systemctl" command is not found

Try this first

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install systemd

Once you do that, try running those commands again.

Odd....try:

sudo unmask bfgminer.service

Then try and enable and start it agian.  If not, then its over my head.

What is the right way to start bfgminer as a service? "systemctl enable bfgminer.service" doesn't work.
Thanks.

has anyone found a way to do this?

tried using a shell script to start the miner

Code:
#!/bin/bash
/home/pi/moonlander2/bfgminer_5.4.2-futurebit2_linux_armv6/start_moonlander2.sh

but all I keep getting this:

Code:
 ./bfgminer: No such file or directory

it works fine when I try to start
Code:
./start_moonlander2.sh
inside the directory but just wont start with the shell script
