Prepare for the first global large-scale certificate update to Secure Boot.
The Microsoft certificates used in Secure Boot are the basis of trust for operating system security, and all will be expiring beginning June 2026. The way to automatically get timely updates to new certificates for supported Windows systems is to let Microsoft manage your Windows updates, which include Secure Boot. A close collaboration with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) who provide Secure Boot firmware updates is also essential.
If you haven't yet, begin evaluating options and start preparing for the rollout of updated certificates across your organization in the coming months. Learn about this effort, its impact, and what you as an IT admin should do to help ensure that your Windows devices can receive updates after June 2026 without compromising system security.
Important: While platforms beyond Windows are affected, this article focuses on the solution for Windows systems. Be sure to monitor the Secure Boot certificate rollout landing page for status and guidance updates.
Recap: Why Secure Boot requires updating
Secure Boot helps to prevent malware from running early in the startup sequence of a Windows device. Coupled with the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) firmware signing process, Secure Boot uses cryptographic keys, known as certificate authorities (CAs), to validate that firmware modules come from a trusted source.
After 15 years, the Secure Boot certificates that are part of Windows systems will start expiring in June 2026. Windows devices will need new certificates to maintain continuity and protection.
Affected: Physical and virtual machines (VMs) on supported versions of Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows Server 2025, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2—the systems released since 2012, including the long-term servicing channel (LTSC)
Not affected: Copilot+ PCs released in 2025
Note: Affected third-party OS includes MacOS. However, it's outside the scope of Microsoft support. For Linux systems dual booting with Windows, Windows will update the certificates that Linux relies on.
Secure Boot uses certificate-based trust hierarchy to ensure that only authorized software runs during system startup. At the top of this hierarchy is the Platform Key (PK), typically managed by the OEM or a delegate, which acts as the root of trust. The PK authorizes updates to the Key Enrollment Key (KEK) database, which in turn authorizes updates to two critical signature databases: the Allowed Signature Database (DB) and the Forbidden Signature Database (DBX). This layered structure ensures that only validated updates can modify the system's boot policy, maintaining a secure boot environment. See how it works in Updating Secure Boot keys.
The change: Expiring certificates
Windows systems released since 2012 might have expiring versions of the certificates listed below. The UEFI Secure Boot DB and KEK need to be updated with the corresponding new certificate versions.
See what new certificates will be available in the coming months to maintain UEFI Secure Boot continuity.

*You need two new certificates for Microsoft Corporation UEFI CA 2011, which together allow for more granular control.
Microsoft and partner OEMs will be rolling out certificates to add trust for the new DB and KEK certificates in the coming months.
The impact and implications
The CAs ensure the integrity of the device startup sequence. When these CAs expire, the systems will stop receiving security fixes for the Windows Boot Manager and the Secure Boot components. Compromised security at startup threatens the overall security of affected Windows devices, especially due to bootkit malware. Bootkit malware can be difficult or impossible to detect with standard antivirus software. For example, even today, the unsecured boot path can be used as a cyberattack vector by the BlackLotus UEFI bootkit (CVE-2023-24932).
Every Windows system with Secure Boot enabled includes the same three certificates in support of third-party hardware and Windows ecosystem. Unless prepared, physical devices and VMs will:
Lose the ability to install Secure Boot security updates after June 2026.
Not trust third-party software signed with new certificates after June 2026.
Not receive security fixes for Windows Boot Manager by October 2026.
To prevent this, you'll need to update your organization's entire Windows ecosystem with certificates dated 2023 or newer. This will also help you apply mitigations needed to help secure your systems against the BlackLotus and similar boot-level cyberattacks today.
Important: Check with your OEMs on the latest available OEM firmware. Apply any available firmware updates to your Windows systems before applying the new certificates. In the Secure Boot flow, firmware updates from OEMs are the foundation for Windows Secure Boot updates to apply correctly.
Microsoft support is only available for supported client versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10. Once Windows 10 reaches end of support in October 2025, consider getting Extended Security Updates (ESU) for Windows 10, version 22H2 if you're not ready to upgrade.
In the coming months, we expect to update the Secure Boot certificates as part of our latest cumulative update cycle.
The solution that requires the least effort is letting Microsoft manage your Windows device updates, including Secure Boot updates. However, you might need to adopt multiple solutions. Your specific next step depends on the Windows systems and how you manage them.
Enterprise IT-managed systems that send diagnostic data
No action is required if Windows systems at your organization receive Windows updates from Microsoft and send diagnostic data back to Microsoft. This includes devices that receive updates through Windows Autopatch, Microsoft Configuration Manager, or third-party solutions.
Note: Check that your firewall doesn't block diagnostic data. If it does, please take action to help diagnostic data reach Microsoft.
Windows diagnostic data and OEM feedback will help us group devices with similar hardware and firmware profiles to gradually release Secure Boot updates to you. This allows us to intelligently monitor the rollout process, proactively pausing, addressing any issues, and continuing as needed. Just keep your devices updated with the latest Windows updates!
Enterprise IT-managed systems that don't send diagnostic data
Enable Windows diagnostic data and let Microsoft manage your updates by taking the following steps:
Allow Microsoft to manage Secure Boot-related updates for your devices by setting the following registry key:
o Registry path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Secureboot
o Key name: MicrosoftUpdateManagedOptIn
o Type: DWORD
o DWORD value: 0x5944 (opt in to Windows Secure Boot updates)
We recommend setting this key to 0x5944. It indicates that all certificates should be updated in a manner that preserves the security profile of the existing device. It also updates the boot manager to the one signed by the Windows UEFI CA 2023 certificate. Note: If the DWORD value is 0 or the key doesn't exist, Windows diagnostic data is disabled.
If you prefer not to enable diagnostic data, please take this anonymous readiness survey. Help us assess the needs of environments like yours to create future guidance on managing the update process independently. You'll remain fully in control and responsible to execute and monitor these updates.
Air-gapped devices, such as in government scenarios or manufacturing, are a special case. Because Microsoft cannot manage these updates, we can only offer the following limited support:
Recommend known steps or methods for deploying these updates
Windows cannot update the active variables of the Secure Boot certificates if Secure Boot is disabled.
Important: Toggling Secure Boot on or off might erase the updated certificates. If Secure Boot is on, leave it enabled. Turning it off can reset the settings with defaults, which is not desirable.
Share these recommendations with individual users:
Press Windows key + R, type msinfo32, and then press Enter.
In the System Informationwindow, look for Secure Boot State.
If it says On, you're good to go!
If Secure Boot is off or unsupported, the device may not receive the new CAs. For these devices, you may choose to enable Secure Boot with this guidance: Windows 11 and Secure Boot.
Change management considerations
Don't wait until June 2026! Updating DB and KEK with new 2023 certificates will help prevent your systems from boot-level security vulnerabilities today.
Get the latest OEM firmware updates and let Microsoft manage your Windows updates to receive Secure Boot updates automatically. Otherwise, help us understand your special case by completing this anonymous readiness survey.
Watch the release notes for Windows 11, version 24H2,version 23H2, and Windows 10 in the coming months to know when these updates are available to you. Stay tuned for additional guidance for the LTSC as needed.
Hi, We do PXE booting for OS deployment using WinPE and Linux. If we submit our new shim.efi now for Microsoft signing, which will be signed with new certificates ( CA 2023) or the older certificates ( CA 2011).
I’m somewhat happy to see that many of the manual steps from 5025885 to fix BlackLotus will now be deployed by Microsoft through updates.
As I understand it, everything should happen automatically if telemetry data is set to "required" and the devices are managed by Intune. It’s not explicitly mentioned, but I assume that since Autopatch is included, Intune will be as well.
Or am I misunderstanding, and there are still manual steps required to address the BlackLotus CVE?
If we are more familiar with the behavioral characteristics of Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7 and Windows XP, I hope that Microsoft will release a system UI customization tool specially built for Windows 10 and Windows 11 as soon as possible, called Windows UI Tweaker.
Windows 11 might need admin rights to change or recreate the Windows 10 style Start menu (like showing more tiles on the Start menu, theme awareness, enabling rainbow effects, displaying the app list in the Start menu, showing recently added apps, showing most used apps, occasionally showing suggestions in the Start menu, using a full-screen Start screen, showing recently opened items in the Start menu or taskbar jump lists, and in File Explorer's Quick Access, and backing up the Start menu tile layout, among other options), taskbar (including toolbars, showing search icons, showing the search box, showing the Cortana button, showing the Task View button, displaying people on the taskbar, showing news and interests, locking the taskbar, auto-hiding the taskbar, using small taskbar buttons, etc.), search menu (including search highlighting), Snipping Tool, Alt Tab (window switcher), Task View (including timeline), File Explorer, file transfer dialog, system tray (including floating controls for network, sound, clock, battery, language switcher, etc.), notification center, and action center, and more.
Windows 10 or Windows 11 might also need admin rights to change or recreate the Windows 8.1 style Start menu (like using the Start menu instead of the Start screen, storing and displaying recently opened programs in the Start menu, and storing and displaying recently opened items in both the Start menu and taskbar, etc.) and taskbar options (like locking the taskbar, auto-hiding the taskbar, using small taskbar buttons, etc.), Windows 8 style File Explorer and network floating controls, Windows 7 style Start menu and taskbar (including options like locking, auto-hiding, using small buttons, etc.), File Manager, Alt Tab (window switcher), Win Tab (3D switch), and system tray (including controls for network, sound, clock, battery, etc.), and even Windows XP style Start menu, taskbar, and File Explorer, plus Windows NT style Alt Tab (window switcher), and so on.
Will the Windows Deployment Services (WDS) role on Windows Server be updated to support network booting for endpoint devices that have had the old UEFI cert revoked? Even though, as of the most recent ADK release, it is now possible to create bootable media (.iso/.wim) supported by the new certs, when I last tested at the end of 2024, it did not seem possible to actually PXE boot to WDS (errors out before the screen that would normally show the boot image selection).
Hi, are we creating a key called MicrosoftUpdateManagedOptIn with a default value of 0x5944, or a DWORD value called MicrosoftUpdateManagedOptIn that equals 0x5944?
We use Windows Autopatch and have all diagnostic data turned on, yet I don't see this registry key. Is this something we must enable ourselves or will this become available in a future update?
Same here — I also don’t see that registry key on my systems (diagnostic data set via Intune to "Required"). Definitely something to keep an eye on.

Learn how to update to the new 2023 Secure Boot certificates ahead of June 2026 expiration.
\n\n
","body":"
Prepare for the first global large-scale certificate update to Secure Boot.
\n
The Microsoft certificates used in Secure Boot are the basis of trust for operating system security, and all will be expiring beginning June 2026. The way to automatically get timely updates to new certificates for supported Windows systems is to let Microsoft manage your Windows updates, which include Secure Boot. A close collaboration with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) who provide Secure Boot firmware updates is also essential.
\n
If you haven't yet, begin evaluating options and start preparing for the rollout of updated certificates across your organization in the coming months. Learn about this effort, its impact, and what you as an IT admin should do to help ensure that your Windows devices can receive updates after June 2026 without compromising system security.
\n
\n
Important: While platforms beyond Windows are affected, this article focuses on the solution for Windows systems. Be sure to monitor the Secure Boot certificate rollout landing page for status and guidance updates.
\n
\n
Recap: Why Secure Boot requires updating
\n
Secure Boot helps to prevent malware from running early in the startup sequence of a Windows device. Coupled with the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) firmware signing process, Secure Boot uses cryptographic keys, known as certificate authorities (CAs), to validate that firmware modules come from a trusted source.
\n
After 15 years, the Secure Boot certificates that are part of Windows systems will start expiring in June 2026. Windows devices will need new certificates to maintain continuity and protection.
\n
\n
Affected: Physical and virtual machines (VMs) on supported versions of Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows Server 2025, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2—the systems released since 2012, including the long-term servicing channel (LTSC)
\n
Not affected: Copilot+ PCs released in 2025
\n
\n
\n
Note: Affected third-party OS includes MacOS. However, it's outside the scope of Microsoft support. For Linux systems dual booting with Windows, Windows will update the certificates that Linux relies on.
\n
\n
Secure Boot uses certificate-based trust hierarchy to ensure that only authorized software runs during system startup. At the top of this hierarchy is the Platform Key (PK), typically managed by the OEM or a delegate, which acts as the root of trust. The PK authorizes updates to the Key Enrollment Key (KEK) database, which in turn authorizes updates to two critical signature databases: the Allowed Signature Database (DB) and the Forbidden Signature Database (DBX). This layered structure ensures that only validated updates can modify the system's boot policy, maintaining a secure boot environment. See how it works in Updating Secure Boot keys.
\n
The change: Expiring certificates
\n
Windows systems released since 2012 might have expiring versions of the certificates listed below. The UEFI Secure Boot DB and KEK need to be updated with the corresponding new certificate versions.

*You need two new certificates for Microsoft Corporation UEFI CA 2011, which together allow for more granular control.
\n
Microsoft and partner OEMs will be rolling out certificates to add trust for the new DB and KEK certificates in the coming months.
\n
The impact and implications
\n
The CAs ensure the integrity of the device startup sequence. When these CAs expire, the systems will stop receiving security fixes for the Windows Boot Manager and the Secure Boot components. Compromised security at startup threatens the overall security of affected Windows devices, especially due to bootkit malware. Bootkit malware can be difficult or impossible to detect with standard antivirus software. For example, even today, the unsecured boot path can be used as a cyberattack vector by the BlackLotus UEFI bootkit (CVE-2023-24932).
\n
Every Windows system with Secure Boot enabled includes the same three certificates in support of third-party hardware and Windows ecosystem. Unless prepared, physical devices and VMs will:
\n
\n
Lose the ability to install Secure Boot security updates after June 2026.
\n
Not trust third-party software signed with new certificates after June 2026.
\n
Not receive security fixes for Windows Boot Manager by October 2026.
\n
\n
To prevent this, you'll need to update your organization's entire Windows ecosystem with certificates dated 2023 or newer. This will also help you apply mitigations needed to help secure your systems against the BlackLotus and similar boot-level cyberattacks today.
Important: Check with your OEMs on the latest available OEM firmware. Apply any available firmware updates to your Windows systems before applying the new certificates. In the Secure Boot flow, firmware updates from OEMs are the foundation for Windows Secure Boot updates to apply correctly.
\n
\n
Microsoft support is only available for supported client versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10. Once Windows 10 reaches end of support in October 2025, consider getting Extended Security Updates (ESU) for Windows 10, version 22H2 if you're not ready to upgrade.
\n
In the coming months, we expect to update the Secure Boot certificates as part of our latest cumulative update cycle.
\n
The solution that requires the least effort is letting Microsoft manage your Windows device updates, including Secure Boot updates. However, you might need to adopt multiple solutions. Your specific next step depends on the Windows systems and how you manage them.
\n
Enterprise IT-managed systems that send diagnostic data
\n
No action is required if Windows systems at your organization receive Windows updates from Microsoft and send diagnostic data back to Microsoft. This includes devices that receive updates through Windows Autopatch, Microsoft Configuration Manager, or third-party solutions.
\n
\n
Note: Check that your firewall doesn't block diagnostic data. If it does, please take action to help diagnostic data reach Microsoft.
\n
\n
Windows diagnostic data and OEM feedback will help us group devices with similar hardware and firmware profiles to gradually release Secure Boot updates to you. This allows us to intelligently monitor the rollout process, proactively pausing, addressing any issues, and continuing as needed. Just keep your devices updated with the latest Windows updates!
\n
Enterprise IT-managed systems that don't send diagnostic data
\n
Enable Windows diagnostic data and let Microsoft manage your updates by taking the following steps:
Allow Microsoft to manage Secure Boot-related updates for your devices by setting the following registry key:
\n\n
o Registry path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Secureboot
\n
o Key name: MicrosoftUpdateManagedOptIn
\n
o Type: DWORD
\n
o DWORD value: 0x5944 (opt in to Windows Secure Boot updates)
\n
We recommend setting this key to 0x5944. It indicates that all certificates should be updated in a manner that preserves the security profile of the existing device. It also updates the boot manager to the one signed by the Windows UEFI CA 2023 certificate. Note: If the DWORD value is 0 or the key doesn't exist, Windows diagnostic data is disabled.
\n
If you prefer not to enable diagnostic data, please take this anonymous readiness survey. Help us assess the needs of environments like yours to create future guidance on managing the update process independently. You'll remain fully in control and responsible to execute and monitor these updates.
\n
Air-gapped devices, such as in government scenarios or manufacturing, are a special case. Because Microsoft cannot manage these updates, we can only offer the following limited support:
\n
\n
Recommend known steps or methods for deploying these updates
Windows cannot update the active variables of the Secure Boot certificates if Secure Boot is disabled.
\n
\n
Important: Toggling Secure Boot on or off might erase the updated certificates. If Secure Boot is on, leave it enabled. Turning it off can reset the settings with defaults, which is not desirable.
\n
\n
Share these recommendations with individual users:
\n\n
Press Windows key + R, type msinfo32, and then press Enter.
\n
In the System Informationwindow, look for Secure Boot State.
\n
If it says On, you're good to go!
\n\n
If Secure Boot is off or unsupported, the device may not receive the new CAs. For these devices, you may choose to enable Secure Boot with this guidance: Windows 11 and Secure Boot.
\n
Change management considerations
\n
Don't wait until June 2026! Updating DB and KEK with new 2023 certificates will help prevent your systems from boot-level security vulnerabilities today.
\n
Get the latest OEM firmware updates and let Microsoft manage your Windows updates to receive Secure Boot updates automatically. Otherwise, help us understand your special case by completing this anonymous readiness survey.
\n
Watch the release notes for Windows 11, version 24H2,version 23H2, and Windows 10 in the coming months to know when these updates are available to you. Stay tuned for additional guidance for the LTSC as needed.
Prepare for the first global large-scale certificate update to Secure Boot.
\n
The Microsoft certificates used in Secure Boot are the basis of trust for operating system security, and all will be expiring beginning June 2026. The way to automatically get timely updates to new certificates for supported Windows systems is to let Microsoft manage your Windows updates, which include Secure Boot. A close collaboration with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) who provide Secure Boot firmware updates is also essential.
\n
If you haven't yet, begin evaluating options and start preparing for the rollout of updated certificates across your organization in the coming months. Learn about this effort, its impact, and what you as an IT admin should do to help ensure that your Windows devices can receive updates after June 2026 without compromising system security.
\n
\n
Important: While platforms beyond Windows are affected, this article focuses on the solution for Windows systems. Be sure to monitor the Secure Boot certificate rollout landing page for status and guidance updates.
\n
\n
Recap: Why Secure Boot requires updating
\n
Secure Boot helps to prevent malware from running early in the startup sequence of a Windows device. Coupled with the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) firmware signing process, Secure Boot uses cryptographic keys, known as certificate authorities (CAs), to validate that firmware modules come from a trusted source.
\n
After 15 years, the Secure Boot certificates that are part of Windows systems will start expiring in June 2026. Windows devices will need new certificates to maintain continuity and protection.
\n
\n
Affected: Physical and virtual machines (VMs) on supported versions of Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows Server 2025, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2—the systems released since 2012, including the long-term servicing channel (LTSC)
\n
Not affected: Copilot+ PCs released in 2025
\n
\n
\n
Note: Affected third-party OS includes MacOS. However, it's outside the scope of Microsoft support. For Linux systems dual booting with Windows, Windows will update the certificates that Linux relies on.
\n
\n
Secure Boot uses certificate-based trust hierarchy to ensure that only authorized software runs during system startup. At the top of this hierarchy is the Platform Key (PK), typically managed by the OEM or a delegate, which acts as the root of trust. The PK authorizes updates to the Key Enrollment Key (KEK) database, which in turn authorizes updates to two critical signature databases: the Allowed Signature Database (DB) and the Forbidden Signature Database (DBX). This layered structure ensures that only validated updates can modify the system's boot policy, maintaining a secure boot environment. See how it works in Updating Secure Boot keys.
\n
The change: Expiring certificates
\n
Windows systems released since 2012 might have expiring versions of the certificates listed below. The UEFI Secure Boot DB and KEK need to be updated with the corresponding new certificate versions.

\n
The impact and implications
\n
The CAs ensure the integrity of the device startup sequence. When these CAs expire, the systems will stop receiving security fixes for the Windows Boot Manager and the Secure Boot components. Compromised security at startup threatens the overall security of affected Windows devices, especially due to bootkit malware. Bootkit malware can be difficult or impossible to detect with standard antivirus software. For example, even today, the unsecured boot path can be used as a cyberattack vector by the BlackLotus UEFI bootkit (CVE-2023-24932).
\n
Every Windows system with Secure Boot enabled includes the same three certificates in support of third-party hardware and Windows ecosystem. Unless prepared, physical devices and VMs will:
\n
\n
Lose the ability to install Secure Boot security updates after June 2026.
\n
Not trust third-party software signed with new certificates after June 2026.
\n
Not receive security fixes for Windows Boot Manager by October 2026.
\n
\n
To prevent this, you'll need to update your organization's entire Windows ecosystem with certificates dated 2023 or newer. This will also help you apply mitigations needed to help secure your systems against the BlackLotus and similar boot-level cyberattacks today.
Important: Check with your OEMs on the latest available OEM firmware. Apply any available firmware updates to your Windows systems before applying the new certificates. In the Secure Boot flow, firmware updates from OEMs are the foundation for Windows Secure Boot updates to apply correctly.

I’m somewhat happy to see that many of the manual steps from 5025885 to fix BlackLotus will now be deployed by Microsoft through updates.
As I understand it, everything should happen automatically if telemetry data is set to \"required\" and the devices are managed by Intune. It’s not explicitly mentioned, but I assume that since Autopatch is included, Intune will be as well.
Or am I misunderstanding, and there are still manual steps required to address the BlackLotus CVE?

You mention autopatch, configuration manager and third party.
Are we safe to assume Intune Windows Update Rings will also apply and we're ok if we use those?

If we are more familiar with the behavioral characteristics of Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7 and Windows XP, I hope that Microsoft will release a system UI customization tool specially built for Windows 10 and Windows 11 as soon as possible, called Windows UI Tweaker.
Windows 11 might need admin rights to change or recreate the Windows 10 style Start menu (like showing more tiles on the Start menu, theme awareness, enabling rainbow effects, displaying the app list in the Start menu, showing recently added apps, showing most used apps, occasionally showing suggestions in the Start menu, using a full-screen Start screen, showing recently opened items in the Start menu or taskbar jump lists, and in File Explorer's Quick Access, and backing up the Start menu tile layout, among other options), taskbar (including toolbars, showing search icons, showing the search box, showing the Cortana button, showing the Task View button, displaying people on the taskbar, showing news and interests, locking the taskbar, auto-hiding the taskbar, using small taskbar buttons, etc.), search menu (including search highlighting), Snipping Tool, Alt Tab (window switcher), Task View (including timeline), File Explorer, file transfer dialog, system tray (including floating controls for network, sound, clock, battery, language switcher, etc.), notification center, and action center, and more.
Windows 10 or Windows 11 might also need admin rights to change or recreate the Windows 8.1 style Start menu (like using the Start menu instead of the Start screen, storing and displaying recently opened programs in the Start menu, and storing and displaying recently opened items in both the Start menu and taskbar, etc.) and taskbar options (like locking the taskbar, auto-hiding the taskbar, using small taskbar buttons, etc.), Windows 8 style File Explorer and network floating controls, Windows 7 style Start menu and taskbar (including options like locking, auto-hiding, using small buttons, etc.), File Manager, Alt Tab (window switcher), Win Tab (3D switch), and system tray (including controls for network, sound, clock, battery, etc.), and even Windows XP style Start menu, taskbar, and File Explorer, plus Windows NT style Alt Tab (window switcher), and so on.

Will the Windows Deployment Services (WDS) role on Windows Server be updated to support network booting for endpoint devices that have had the old UEFI cert revoked? Even though, as of the most recent ADK release, it is now possible to create bootable media (.iso/.wim) supported by the new certs, when I last tested at the end of 2024, it did not seem possible to actually PXE boot to WDS (errors out before the screen that would normally show the boot image selection).
