Th question was about syslinux, not Grub.
Here is how it is done in Slint's installers when using syslinux:
The config file (whose name ends in .cfg) includes this line:
DISPLAY BEEP
BEEP is an ASCII file, stored in the same directory, with just
two characters:
^G
This is the "beep" sound.
When you boot you hear the beep.
As an aside, if using Grub2, you'd uncomment this line in
/etc/default/grub:
#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"
Just removing the leading #
Then run:
update-grub
or grub-config -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
(this assumes that grub is already installed, else
you'd need to run grub-install after that).
Best,
Didier
