The solution was turn off the system power or pull its plug.

When it starts backup after about 15 minutes you should get admin menu back. System will be very slow, don't know the issue is there, but with out a boot menu, there isn't much you can do.

With the backup comment you are probably going to suggest a factory reset of a 8T system which would have to be a weekend project. But since the system's are proving to be unstable, it seems like a waste of time if they are going to fail again.
