You can stop the wav by removing it from /root/.linus/linus.wav
or editing /etc/init.d/local.sh
and removing the following line
/usr/bin/play-sound /root/.linus/linus.wav
Probably things have changed, but running today's install-tools-N810e.deb, version 1.0.0-5, there is indeed a /root/.linus/linus.wav, but there is no line with that filename in the file /etc/init.d/local.sh. Where is it now? I'm guessing it would be better to remove the command, to save play-sound from having to start up, or is it started anyway to run the Nokia boot sound?

At the risk of thread-hijacking
1. It seems like the Nokia boots slower with dual-boot, with quite a long time of high CPU activity after the desktop appears. Is it really longer, or am I just paying more attention?
2. Really all I wanted was a way of backing up the OS, which is now done. (Thank you Penguinbait!) Is it possible now to go back to the old single-boot?
3. If I ever need to restore the OS, how would I do that? Obviously I can boot off the memory card, but how would I copy that back to flash?

I expect this is all already in a thread somewhere, but I've had trouble finding documentation on OS cloning and dual boot, partly because there were so many different ways of doing it (thanks again to Penguinbait for making an easy way).
