To make you Raspberry Pi automatically login (for example to login right away when you start the Pi), do the following for RaspBian:

In terminal:

sudo nano /etc/inittab

Scroll down to:

1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 115200 tty1

add a hash in front of this line to comment it out so it looks like:

#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 115200 tty1

Under that line add:

1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f pi tty1 </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1

Ctrl+X to exit, Y to save followed by enter twice.

Reboot you RPi and ... it logs in as the user "pi" automatically.
