You certainly don't want to have to start TiVoWeb from the command line every time you reboot your TiVo. Instead, have it start up when TiVo boots.
Getting the TiVoWeb server to start automatically when you boot your TiVo itself is just a matter of adding the right invocation to the initialization system.
You'll need command-line access to your TiVo Section 3.3. Once you're logged in, be sure that the root partition is mounted read/write:
mount -o remount,rw /
Next, you'll simply append the same command used to start TiVoWeb [Hack #65] manually to the startup script, /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, like so:
echo "/var/hack/tivoweb-tcl/tivoweb" | cat /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit
To commit your changes, remount the filesystem as read-only:
mount -o remount,ro /
Reboot your TiVo. After you get past the Almost there startup screen, TiVoWeb should be up and running and accessible through your web browser.
