What you can do is put a control g in your /etc/issue file. This will
beep your pc speaker when your /etc/issue file gets displayed, which
happens when the system is ready for you to login.

Since I mostly use software speech to access Linux, I don't have access until the login prompt, so it'd be nice to know when my machine is displaying it. If someone could send me that information again I'd appreciate it.
