fallback without keystroke |

I am building a stand alone embedded linux pc. Normaly it shell boot from
flashdisk, but (for service purposes) if possible it shall boot via bootp
and tftp. I put the methds in menu.lst and both work fine when I select
them by hand. But in real life the embedded pc runs without keyboard and
scree and I want it to first boot via bootp and if that fails to
automatically (without interaction via flashdisk. I reduced the
MAX_BOOTP_RETRYS in netboot/etherboot.h from 20 to 2. But after these two
trys I have to press a any key to execute the fallback. This is not what
I need. Is there any possibility to avoid the keystroke?
Any help apreciatod
