>Description:
As /etc/sysconfig and /etc/rc.i386 is now, you can't modify the syscons
bell type on boot. Slightly annoying when your system doesn't have a speaker.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just try to set some mythical optino in /etc/sysconfig. You'll find it isn't
there. =)
>Fix:

/etc/sysconfig does allow you to set the bell type/style on boot.
