Some GRUB_INIT_TUNE themes I've found online in various places... this is a fragment from my debian:/etc/default/grub file

This tip which converts a GRUB_INIT_TUNE to a audio file which sox will play through the soundcard...

Based on this script, I've concoted the following, which converts a GRUB_INIT_TUNE into a beep(1) command, to play it through the PC speaker - as grub intended.
#!/bin/bash if [ $# -lt 3 ]; then echo "Usage: $0 tempo freq dur [freq dur freq dur...]" >&2 exit 1 fi tempo=$1; shift while [ -n "$*" ]; do freq=$1; shift [ $freq -eq 0 ] && freq=1 # beep will fail if $freq is 0 dur=$1; shift dur=$((120000*$dur/$tempo)) # ie, 2 * 60 (bpm) * 1000 (for milliseconds) * duration / tempo # No, I don't know why that 2* has to be there initially, but it makes it sound right to beep a t least BEEPOPTS="$BEEPOPTS $NEXT -f $freq -l $dur" NEXT="-n" done beep $BEEPOPTS
