Just got a PXE server up. Now we'll start adding actual useful stuff to it.
What you using?
Ended up with Ubuntu. I still don't like ubuntu, but it was the easiest to get a working config setup on.
dnsmasq is in proxy mode for the network, and acting as the tftp server.
This how-to is based on Fedora 26
https://www.hiroom2.com/2017/07/13/fedora-26-pxeboot-automated-install-en/I'm about to setup a Fedora 29 netboot kiosk for RDP here, I'll probably use some of that Fedora 26 guide.

Anyone seeing Windows 10 activation errors?
My PC and a laptop today has become "unactivated" and when i try to re activate it says the key is for Home not Pro.
Think these machines were upgraded from Windows7/8 Pro during the "Free" upgrade period microsoft did.

The upgrade was for the same revision though. Win 7 Home to Win 10 Home.
If you were running Win 10 Pro, then someone likely activated these with a Win 10 Pro key via a clean install.

Update
While there remains no official statement from Microsoft on the problem, users have reported that the hardworking support operatives of the Windows giant have warned that there is indeed a "temporary issue" with its activation servers related to the Pro edition. Affected customers are advised to sit tight and wait for a fix. An estimate for when that might be? Anywhere from one to two days. Oh dear.(from https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/11/08/windows_10_activation/)

Does it render the computer unusable, or just give you annoying popups?
