Talking Arch Linux Installer

[Jude DaShiell]

That tutorial by the way has you doing all of the extra steps to get arch 
talking so it talks when you do the reboot.  Much nicer than doing things 
after a silent reboot.  If you're going to be using talkingarch in console 
mode only, you will find it helpful to modify /etc/default/grub/grub.cfg 
to disable graphical input and graphical output and enable console input 
and enable console output.  Failure to do so will prevent pcspkr from 
beeping when you get back to the beginning of a line.  Once that's done 
though and you have pcspkr running that suddenly works.  I stumbled on all 
of this in process of modifying my GRUBINITTUNE and decided to have a read 
through grub.cfg to see what was there and what could be modified to suit 
my needs.
