Infinite loop attempting to find DHCP

I'm wondering if there is any way to have Etherboot quit and continue with
the normal boot sequence if there is no DHCP server found.  I've tried
multiple options from Rom-o-matic, but can't get one that will work.

Currently, it will load the BIOS extension and ask "Boot from (N)etwork or
(Q)uit" for the default 3 seconds before attempting to boot the default
(which is network).  If it can't connect to a DHCP server, it asks again and
waits 3 seconds.  It will do that indefinitely.

Is there any way to have it quit if it can't find the DHCP server?  If a
Rom-o-matic solution exists, I would prefer that as I do not have access to
a Linux box.

Thanks in advance.
