Just to confirm - the retail RTM build is 10240 that was earlier shared with insiders. It installed alright on my haswell rig. The only issue was lack of network at the end of the install - the supplied driver for the onboard intel i218 nic failed to work properly. Had to install the latest driver from intel for it to start working.
Windows Windows 10 Technical Preview.

Do not clean install first if you want to keep activated. Upgrade first to Windows 10 from 7/8/8.1, then you can do a clean install and it will remain activated. Apparently MS is saving your hardware description in its server, when you upgrade. Later even if you clean install, it will be activated.
Users are reporting that this works for all Windows 7/8/8.1 that are activated using any method (genuine or not genuine).
Only the upgrade path is:
Windows 7 Home Basic/ Home premium or Windows 8/8.1 Core => Windows 10 Core
Windows 7 Professional/Ultimate or Windows 8/8.1 Pro => Windows 10 Pro

Yeah will try that. Have to use OTG to use pen drive and install. Problem is, i read that, installation menu has no proper touch functionality, so have to use a keyboard. That is a problem if i use OTG to install. Only 1 port .

Installed all updates and got it back but i won't take this route. On 1 MBps speed it will quickly bore me down.
