Description:
  Allow to configure whether the acoustic signal should be used for
  installed bootloader.
  Acoustic signal is valuable for visually impaired people, while it may
  be disturbing e.g. in libraries.
   
  Discussion:

  Default can be set depending on whether braille display was found or
  whether text-to-speech in isolinux was used.
   
  #2: Stefan Behlert (sbehlert) (2008-11-12 17:15:07) 
  Is this feature meant as 'allow atuomatic setting of'? The beep is
  afaik already configurable to be 'off'. If not, this would be a bug.
   
  #3: Stefan Seyfried (seife) (2008-11-12 18:09:40) 
  Please reject this feature. This is seriously overengineered.
  The beep now defaults to off int the installed system. If somebody
  wants to enable it, he can do so with
  gfxboot --change-config "boot::beep=1"
  Marco only needs to document that for his customers and everything is
  fine. Please, no YaST module for that.
   
  #4: Jiri Srain (jsrain) (2008-11-13 09:39:44) (reply to #3)
  It's not about a new module, just about a check box in the bootloader
  configuration.

+ Jozo, please, find a reasonable location for the check box.
