Can Initial Deployment Jobs menu wait indefinitely

Hello,

I have unchecked the check-box for "Timeout after xx seconds and proceed". I thought, this would make the jobs menu wait indefinitely.
However, what I am experiancing is that the jobs menu waits 255 seconds, then gives me another final warining and proceeds if nothing is pressed.

Is there a way to configure this timeout setting so the jobs menu stays and wait indefinetely until a user intervention?

Thank you!

Make a dummy job called -Add

Make a dummy job called -Add to Database- then within that job make a Wait task. Assign this to your default task in the initial deployment menu. This way once it counts down from 255 it will just sit in automation. The job can then be dragged to the machine from the DS console.

As far as having it wait at the menu of choices for initial deployment, I don't believe there is a built in way.... yet.
