So first you want to autostart node red and after that, when it’s started, chromium in kiosk mode?

Yes, in `dietpi-autostart` there is an option to set autostart for chromium in kiosk mode.  
The script can be found at `/var/lib/dietpi/dietpi-software/installed/chromium-autostart.sh`, but I’m not sure if the modification will survive an update, what do you think @Joulinar ?

Just add the line before the `exec` command, like

```auto
sleep 5m

```

See: [https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/sleep.1.html](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/sleep.1.html)

Yes should survive an update.
