Hi Glenn, thanks for your answer. I edited /etc/default/grub and appended
to the last line the command
play 60 440 4
When I do update-bootloader, it tells me
+ /usr/sbin/grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
/etc/default/grub: line 50: play: command not found

I tried next to use the command: play "60 440 4" but I got the same error.
I also tried moving the command GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1" to the last line
of the grub script, but the beep comes up about 6 seconds before the menu
is displayed.
