Or you could have serial/UART console attached :-) I think you could use Combustion to configure system on first boot automatically for you see: https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:MicroOS/Combustion > > 2.

The 10 seconds delay take much longer than 10 seconds. This is not because of U-Boot. Just checked image that you pointed. U-boot needs less than second to load and start Grub. Delay that you see is most probably because EEPROM firmware try to do network boot first, then USB, then ...
