You are not really asking the right question (its ok you are new to this). However the problem you have really has nothing to do with the Beaglebone Black - it is really a Linux issue and any solution to it would be common to any Linux system.
Try googling something like "*linux auto run program on boot as root*" and you will find a lot of help.
