        I always thought the beeping came from your pc speaker and was 
determined by your bios.  Then again in that fadora howto which uses a 2.6 
kernel with a modular speakup, they use a --with pcspkr option.  I don't 
see why you can't pass that option at the end of where you put the kernel 
line  or actually I think that goes on the line after the kernel line.  I 
don't know, the grub documentation never gave an example of a file with 
special kernel peramiters, then initrd lines then lines specifying 
modules.  What I do, is set the delay really high If I need to type 
something in, something like ttimeout 30.
