Glen,
Please examine /etc/default/grub that is where root can make changes to
grub preferably while not connected to the internet.
Once those changes get done though root will have to issue a command like:
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg <enter>
to make those changes happen on the next reboot.

Since GRUB 2, I haven't known how to alter GRUB, I would like to set the
time-out, and it would be nice to have a beep for each item, or at least a
beep at the top and bottom, and I would like to change the order of the
items.
Maybe it is easier now, but I don't know how to do it.
Thanks for any info.

Thank you, Sir! Got it, installed the beep utility, and now I have a cavalry
charge on boot-up!
GRUB_INIT_TUNE="800 523 2 698 2 880 2 1046 1 1 3 880 2 1046 4"
What a nifty utility!

John,
I'm finally on grub2 and was eager to dive in and make myself a catchy
little tune! Sadly, your script gives me a 404. Where did it go???

All,
I've written what i think is a handy little utility for testing and
experimenting with grub init tunes. To use it, you can do one of three
things:
1. Just run the script. In this case, it will read /etc/default/grub and
play the current GRUB_INIT_TUNE.
2.Set the GRUB_INIT_TUNE environmental variable to a tune. In this case,
it will play your tune. This allows you to try out different tunes.
3. Use one of the tunes I've created. Do this by editing the script and
uncommenting the line for the tune you want to try. There are several
tunes listed at the top of the script.
The script plays the GRUB_INIT_TUNE and then echos it to the console.
To save a tune, just redirect the output to your grub default file,:
# grub-init-tune >> /etc/default/grub
# update-grub
To download the script, point a browser here:

Or:
# wget http://www.iavit.org/~john/grub-init-tune
# chmod 07555 grub-init-tune
