I am looking for a way that when the user turns on the system, system only shows my programs logo and then executes my program only in full screen, without any menu.

How can I do it?

What I have tried:

I have an ARM-based board like raspberryPi and use Ubuntu-server on it.

It is quite some time since I worked on Linux, but there are a number of files in /etc which control what happens at start up. Take a look at the content and the relevant man pages: Linux man pages : init (8)[^]
