How to mute Ubuntu boot up sound

How to mute Ubuntu boot up sound I'm a new user of Ubuntu and I keep seeing people saying to go to Preferences -> Sound and then the Sounds tab. I don't have a sounds Tab. I'm using the latest version of Ubuntu.

"On Ubunto 9.10 / karmic, the startup sound is handled by a startup application. You can disable (or change) the startup sound as described on http://titotheman.wordpress.com/2009/11/06/changing-startup-sound-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic/

If you just want to disable, the important bit is:

Go to System -> Preferences -> Starup
Applications Look for “GNOME Login
Sound” in the list. If you don’t want
to hear anything at startup, uncheck
this box."
