Please do not make that kind of assumptions. People who do not know about the "character" of the cdrom will first wonder why it never boots (default: boot from harddisk) and, when they figure out that, why it grabs their harddisk without first giving them a lot of time to think about whether they want DOS to be installed permanently. In short, just use infinite timeouts, or maybe a one minute timeout for the "default for boot from harddisk" item, to allow people to boot from cdrom, do a few selections, and then walk away (so the PC can reboot into dos-on-harddisk without further user intervention later).
