Thanks for posting the version and configuration file. Can you confirm 
what is happening in the video? It looks like the operator is scrolling 
up and down just as the timeout is about to happen or perhaps has 
already happened? After that, I think you are indicating that the system 
freezes. Also, you mentioned that this is happening on all clients, 
correct? Are they all the same type of client (it looks like a laptop in 
the video)? What happens if there is no operator intervention -- does 
the timeout function properly and does the system boot from "label 1"?
