It's pretty easy to do but it will play at OSX login, not PC boot.
I know it works with .aif files, not sure about other file types:
Could be done a few ways, but here will do Apple Script, this example also came from a Mac Boot Chime. I don't remember where I orig got the Chime sound or the idea from, sorry, but It wasn't my own. Open Apple Script editor and make script:
with /Path/To/SoundFile.aif being...Path to sound file
Choose File>Export and save as Application. Put your new application into your Application folder and in System Preferences>Users add it to Login Items

I will use the goat from 0:22 for startup and the one from 1:14 for my alarm to optimize my wakeup routine in the morning.
