Hi guys! Could not find anything on search for this:  Seeking to have an audio file like .mp3 etc play at boot/Desktop time on my USB flash. Has anyone done this?  "MYDSL ready for action!"

Just add

mpg321 filename.mp3

to your /opt/bootlocal.sh file and use the DSL backup / restore function.

and if you want the bootup process to continue while the sound is still playing, add a "&" character after the filename.mp3
