    naudio::boot:/usr/sbin/naudio > /dev/null

    Is it mandatory ?

    Thanks

    So it's a korn shell script,

    Looking at it, it contains

    
    # # Normalize Audio #
    


    And reading the content, it looks like it manages a device called paud0. It mentions a specific PCI device, 13100560 and checking the ODM,

    
    lsdev -P | grep 13100560 adapter        13100560        pci          PCI Audio Adapter (13100560)
    


    So, I don't think it's doing any harm being there either way. If you have the PCI audio device it appears to make sure it's working, and if you don't it doesn't do anything.

    Do you think it's causing an issue?
