Finally I have installed Windows Server 2012 Full Server (8400.0.WINMAIN_WIN8RC.120518-1423_X64FRE_SERVER_EN-US-HRC_SSS_X64FRE_EN-US_DV5.ISO). I have installed it on Oracle Virtual Box. In my previous blog I have explained how I was struggling with installing Server 2012 on VMWare first. And then when I was successful in installing it on Virtual Box, I had actually installed server core version of Windows Server 2012.  This time around, I downloaded the full server version of Server 2012.

So my obvious choice was to get SharePoint 2013 image and install it on my already running VMWare Server 2008 R2. I downloaded the 2.1 gig image and tried installing it on my VM. But failed. There were varied reasons for the failure. So I decided to get Windows Server 2012 and create a new VM from it and then install SharePoint 2013 on it. I downloaded the Server 2012 Hyper-V Release Candidate (8400.0.WINMAIN_WIN8RC.120518-1423_X64FRE_SERVERHYPERCORE_EN-US-HRC_SHV_X64FRE_EN-US_DV5.ISO). Then tried to create a fresh new V...
