Where is the particular problem? If this is part of homework or classroom stuff, you should have gotten an introduction on shell scripting before being assigned such a work. So at least a tad of code should be possible by yourself?

Apart from the fact that i am in now way sure if i have understood correctly what you want to do, this sounds suspicisously like homework.

If so, you will have to use the "Homework & Coursework" subforum, everywhere else homework questions are not permitted.

In case you did accidentally put your homework question here please tell me and I'll transfer this thread to the appropriate forum.

In any case: PLEASE edit your post and state what you want to do clearly - we do give some leeway when non-natural english speakers are writing here (i myself speak english only as a second language - and not at all perfectly so), but i simply was not able to make any sense of your description. Do yourself a favour and help us helping you.

Thank you.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
 
while true
do
  if [ -f /home/krupa ]
  then
    ./path/to/your/script
    break
  fi
  sleep 5
done

something like this?
