Unable to PXE Boot Surface Pro 2 ?

Unable to PXE Boot Surface Pro 2 ? 

Surface Pro 2 driver pack is available from download from Microsoft Website. This driver pack does not include the Ethernet Adaptor drivers to inject in WinPE boot image for PXE Boot.

Initially I had trouble finding the driver to inject in Boot CD, driver is not included in Surface Pro 2 driver pack or any other official Microsoft link . I managed to identify driver from driverstore and inject in SCCM.
The same driver package was  injected in Win PE boot image from SCCM 2012 R2 or SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 using DISM command on Windows 8.1 machine .

Driver can be downloaded from here.
Thanks

How to deploy Application (offline installer DMG) on Apple MacOS Devices using Microsoft Intune

Microsoft Intune does not support deployment of DMG file. As per the  Microsoft documentation   : " Only  .pkg files may be used to upload macOS LOB apps to Microsoft Intune.

In the example below, I will deploy Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 2020.009.20063 DMG file on MacOS Device. Save following script as .sh package i.e.  InstallAdobeReader.sh #! /bin/sh url=https://ardownload2.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/mac/AcrobatDC/2000920063/AcroRdrDC_2000920063_MUI.dmg   set -x tempd=$(mktemp -d) curl $url > $tempd/AdobeReaderDC.dmg listing=$(sudo hdiutil attach $tempd/AdobeReaderDC.dmg | grep Volumes) volume=$(echo "$listing" | cut -f 3) package=$(ls -1 "$volume" | grep .pkg | head -1) sudo installer -pkg "$volume"/"$package" -target / sudo hdiutil detach "$(echo "$volume" | cut -f 1)" rm -r
