Re: [Accessibility] accessible GRUB

Hi.

You can add a beep to grub that will be played before the boot.

You need to edit the /etc/default/grub file and uncomment the following line:
GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

After that, you need to generate the grub files.
In my distro I use the following command but you need to check ifyou use a distro different of mine.

grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Currently I am using arch as my primary distro.

Good afternoon,

(I am French so my English is not perfect, sorry)

My friend is blind and he wants to test Linux with a dual boot but the GRUB boot menu is not accessible.

Is it possible to add a speech synthesis or a beep to make the GRUB accessible?

Thank you.
