Subject: [PATCH 1/2] FIX: redirect user to build list menu on initial build
 load crash

Currently if a build crashes on initial load the user will be stuck in
the OnError screen. This is especially problematic if the build is set
to default load on startup essentially locking the user out of POB. This
PR redirect the user to the build list menu if a build crashes on
initial load allowing the user to dismiss the error and load a different
build.
