¿No beeper in the box? Check the cabling.

Insert it in "/etc/init.d/after.local". But you have got to find a way to
"beep". Have a look at /etc/init.d/halt; it uses:
echo -en "\033[10;393]\a\033[10;262]"
or:
for tone in 524 491 440 393 349 328 295 ; do
echo -en "\033[10;${tone}]\a"
usleep 125000
done
echo -en "\033[10;262]"
All this things assume a console, by the way, but should work with no
monitor, I suppose.

I use this call:
cat /usr/share/sounds/au/hal9.au > /dev/audio &
but you need a soundcard.
