My Mac IIvx makes a noise similar to that of a pop using NetBSD/mac68k 1.2
GENERIC#1 kernel. at least, it doesn't sound like a "beep".  however, using
GENERICSBC#20, i hear a different noise, somewhat to the effect of grinding
something together. it sound more like a beep, kinda, but i dunno.
give you any clues? maybe.
