leave it the way it is just add .old to the end so it looks like this->poweron.snd.old

Also you can change to whatever sound you want..
It has to an uncompressed audio format such as WAV.
MP3 or M4A wont work

How to:
Get a sound clip of whatever you like in WAV format or if its an mp3 you can convert it to WAV on your computer
Put it on your sdcard
On your phone
in your ROOT file explorer, go to /mnt/sdcard and rename it to poweron.snd
Copy it
navagate to /system/ect
press Mount to R/W
Paste it in /ect
and reboot

your stock sound will still remain as poweron.snd.old
and the system will look for the new poweron.snd at boot

Side note: I'm a metal head so I use song clips, guitar rifs, and drum beats from music that I own. I clip them in Audacity in Windows/ubuntu and move em to my sdcard but you can use any sound as long as its no longer than about 3 seconds long. It will get cut off in the next stage of boot if it's any longer than that
