Just prepend sudo to the command; although that rings a bell... about the "echo" thing...
Maybe it's better you include the three commands in a shell script, and then invoke the script with:

sudo ./yourscript.sh

although I am not sure if that would wait for the password... maybe making "root" the script owner, and then setting its sticky flag would have better chances of running.

I'm having no luck with the sh script.  I would rather use a python script but I cannot figure out how to do the moodeutl test as described above..  I have attached the code snippet below as suggested for the sh script.  Anyone know how to implement this in python? 

Code:

until test $(moodeutl -q "select value from cfg_system where param='wrkready'") = "1"; do

Not in this very moment; but it is a program call, something in the lines of sysCall("moodeutl -q ... ") = "1", or exec(" ... ")...

wait a sec:

import subprocess

subprocess.run(["ls", "-l"])

1st element in the array is the program/command, and further ones are the arguments to such program.

try removing the spave before -q, so that is reads "-q", and not " -q"

depending on the subsystem.popen return type (string/char vs int), I am not proficient in Python...

I recommend you keep your file safe, then try my changes, and keep them ONLY if they work (I might have introduced typos, or simply the Python engine my changes might not like my code shrinking...)

You can also try this, instead of the IF/ELSE:

Code:

GPIO.output(16, boot_complete == 1 ? True : False)

And remove the print(boot_complete) if you like, or comment it by adding a # at the beginning of the line, with no spaces before nor after, so that the line reads

Code:

#print(boot_complete)

That's it.

Good to hear you managed to accomplish then task, and that's what's important.
