Hi Samuel, if you happen to build a grub cdrom with this feature in it 
please send it to me or tell me an url to it.

I think that the beep thing should be easily OFF or ON.
Why don't you make a beep ON OFF command.


My idea for GSD would be default entry (in 5 seconds) activates beep and 
not default entry do not activates it. (Useful in Offices where there are a 
lot of people)


Then I could assign each GSD option a sound or something. Well, I'm not 
quite sure. Do you think GSD is useful for a blind person?

GSD is found at http://adrian15.raulete.net/grub/
