The colour imac that set on our living room sideboard back in my old flat did not know about "N" either. It was more like command-option-o-f (that's right, TWO letter keys plus TWO modifier keys). You will have to press it at the right moment, I think between the first keyboard light indicator and keep held until the chime begins, but not longer than the chime - it took some trying until I got it. That took me into the "openFimrware" bootprompt which is a combination of a rudimentary textmode grub with the thing that PC users would call a BIOS. You can configure network booting there with > boot enet:192.168.0.254 where 192.168.0.254 is the ip address of your > server. for a single time. Setting that as a default is more complex - you may find something in google.
