What Linux itself provides isn't very much. ;) I don't know anything
about TurnKey Linux but if it's based on Ubuntu then maybe you could
write an init script that runs the program in a loop until you stop it
manually but you'd need to know some Bash. I recommend monit because it 
is ideal for this and it is in the Ubuntu repositories. It's also very
minimal.
