Re: [orca-list] [Support] how accessible is a dual boot system?

["Bill Dengler(arch Gnu/Linux)" <billkd2008 gmail com>]

Actually, very close. The line looks something like
GRUB_INIT_TUNE xxx xxx xxx
Personally, I change the frequency of the tone to 880 instead of 440.
I would recommend that you just install Ubuntu 13.04 in place of Windows 
and avoid the entire bootloader thing. If you need Windows, virtualize 
it. There's no need to run that insecure and proprietary OS on an actual 
partition.
