Help Disabling boot up animation and sounds

Hey all,

I've read a bunch of threads from here and xda showing how to disable the bootup animation and startup/shutdown sounds on the captivate, but can't seem to find any utilities that will do it for me on the Vibrant. Short of manually renaming the sound files themselves and deleting the animation file, is there a utility that will do that for me? I don't want to pay the $4.00 for root explorer when Astro works great for everything else.

EDIT: Cancel this request for info. Did some more digging up and found the info along with the cool i9000 boot animation, which I replaced the T-Mo one with.

For anybody else wanting this, here are the two forums that talk about the boot animation as well as the sounds:
