On Leopard I could simply put down the volume before a shut down, and I had no anoying start up sound.However this seems not to work anymore on Lion.Which possibilities do I have to start my system without the roaring bong?

See my reply and installation detail dated 10 Feb 2014. It does work just fine on my iMac.
Indeed, works on iMac. I beleive there are a few old version not working. I used this link:
Hi, this is the Start Ninja I installed from your link, I click on the "OFF" and then I quit Start Ninja, is that all?
Hi,
Did you make it work finally ?
The simplest solution:
Go to Applications>Utilities>Terminal and type (or copy/paste) the next line to change the startup sound volume:
sudo nvram SystemAudioVolume=%10
(“%10” is the volume…you can use %00-%100)
To restore it to the original value type:
sudo nvram -d SystemAudioVolume

If that doesn't work try resetting the NVRAM / PRAM first.
That's how I did.

Reset the NVRAM / PRAM.
Don't follow that link. It [now] leads to nothing but a **** survey the first question of which asks the visitor's gender but weirdly suggests answers to a totally different question.
disable start up sound
