No promises, but what kind of bootsound (like, what theme or something) would be good for the 4.x releases?
I might be able to pull something nice off.
Thanks!

Sorry, but I'll have to disagree with you
I spent about ten minutes typing in elive-boot-sound into the terminal (set to random) just to hear the different songs.

Ho, boys!
You seems to much enslaved by micro$haft or wormed apple if you can't live without a horrific "BLING" noise when starting a computer! It's became a Pavlov effect on you and your brain can't figure out a computer without an noise chain telling all around you "See: I paid & will for it!"!
It's "only" a commercial advert for slaves to slaves!
Well, it's true too that it's so surprising for such a "gas machine" to simply start, a little before some "blue screen of-the-death-that-kill", that it deserves to clame this lame success with a weird noise...
If you are so nostagic of your salvery, at the limit, you can run some Jimmy Hendrix Blues at Elive start!!!
I am a fan of J Hendrix & his magic guitar playing, but certainly not when starting a computer...
Only noise I can afford at start is the FD device's "click-click" of a good old Amiga, but here it's just a technical thing (and there's tips to shut it off as well if there's a DD)... 
Regards!
And yes, on some machines, I unweld/unplug/cut internal speaker/buzzer if needed..! :-p

You seems not to understand the artwork of Elive in this sense.
But if you like silence - good.
Aint me, so ...
Everyone can use his stuff by his gusto.
If someone dislike sounds - just turn it off in the theme settings.
If someone likes crazy sounds - just enjoy it without the need to search for it.
Easy ...

PS:
I never understood Jimy Hendrix - but George Clinton !

Well... a good answer was... NONE
I like to have to look if my ssd loaded minipc has started or not.
But... I like the lighting in the keyboard...
My iMac has a loud one that could wake up anybody in the middle of the night... I know, my wife told me before

Holà!
Under Linux, there's a command line to set it off; or if tere's still somewhat macOS on it, mute sound before stop it and it's ok (with normal sound in Linux)... 
Halo!
You got:
See my first reply and cut on the address given,
there is also a sound-theme explained
Hello TheTechRobo,
Can you show me how to do this setting?
I like also the random setting
Greetz Christian.
I think you can run "elive-boot-sound -c" (without the quotes) in the terminal and it will pop up with a list of the options.
Thx for the tip 
I'll try it tonight 
Many thx!
Greetz.
elive-startup-sound -c
Will it be there in the end?
I'm a lover of windows XP start up and shutdown sounds... It's the sound of my childhood 
Currently, i use elive topaz sound
elive-startup-sound -c
