I completely agree, for those who know that "good taste" means always doing the best, so that the universe gives you back the best too, this is really mandatory, (and since Italian blood runs through my veins lol) "Good taste" is also make the best Carbonara for lunch! lol
Not a shocking news, hard to find a Brasilian w/o at least some drops of Italian blood, (I have a couple of cousins in Belo Horizonte).
I agree 25398 is an extremely solid OS. I'm using the IoTEnterpriseSK flavor. But to be honest my ultimate version would be DataCenter. I've tried for weeks and just cannot get 'er done.
I've got ServerDataCenterCor mounted but when trying to apply the .xml I get error messages. Here's the command I'm using: Dism /Image:C:\mount /Apply-Unattend:C:\sxs\1.xml Actually I have 4 .xml to apply: Dism /Image:C:\mount /Apply-Unattend:C:\sxs\1.xml Dism /Image:C:\mount /Apply-Unattend:C:\sxs\2.xml Dism /Image:C:\mount /Apply-Unattend:C:\sxs\3.xml Dism /Image:C:\mount /Apply-Unattend:C:\sxs\5.xml
One of the .mums I'm using is what you suggested earlier.

u didnt append u need the other packages like edition specific edit also keep the edition ServerDatacenterCor
Are you using DataCenter packages ? If so which versions ? Can you list the packages needed to build DataCenter ?
Yes according to teacher xinso This is what is needed: 5-1. Microsoft-Client-License-Platform-Device-Licensing-Service-Package (which is lacking in Azure editions) 5-2. Microsoft-Windows-Branding-ServerDatacenter-Package Microsoft-Windows-Editions-ServerDatacenterCor-Package Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP-Component-SKU-ServerDatacenter-Package 5-3. a. Microsoft-Windows-EditionSpecific-ServerDatacenterCor-Package in Microsoft-Windows-EditionSpecific-ServerDatacenter-Package structure b. Microsoft-Windows-ServerDatacenterCorEdition in Microsoft-Windows-ServerDatacenterEdition structure 5-4. ServerTurbine image (as source) 5-5. Modify Server Language Pack accordingly
if this is the mum you will use, looks like you just need to add Microsoft-Windows-EditionSpecific-ServerDatacenter-Package
I would like to have it as well. Now I have no time but maybe is possible to follow the way I used for server 2017/2018/2020. (not a proper reconstruction, but just the addition of client packages + rsat to the server core w/o removing anything from it, it may be not as elegant but they never failed me)
This is the modified Microsoft-Windows-EditionSpecific-ServerDataCentre-Package I am using.

Cor what do you mean ? How did you make ServerDataCentre-Package from Cor ? Deployment will still be Cor.
I don't know Ace2....I'm at the point where I'm not sure what's up or down. I just tried to follow this format to the letter. 5-1. Microsoft-Client-License-Platform-Device-Licensing-Service-Package (which is lacking in Azure editions) 5-2. Microsoft-Windows-Branding-ServerDatacenter-Package Microsoft-Windows-Editions-ServerDatacenterCor-Package Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP-Component-SKU-ServerDatacenter-Package 5-3. a. Microsoft-Windows-EditionSpecific-ServerDatacenterCor-Package in Microsoft-Windows-EditionSpecific-ServerDatacenter-Package structure b. Microsoft-Windows-ServerDatacenterCorEdition in Microsoft-Windows-ServerDatacenterEdition structure 5-4. ServerTurbine image (as source) 5-5. Modify Server Language Pack accordingly
From what i have read there maybe two method's 1.Edition Specific switch in client build. 2.acer-5100 said add client packages + rsat to server build, just need to know which client packages to use to get desktop working ?
Up until now the only reconstruction process I have used is the auto conversion with 25398.1_ServerDatacenterCor_to_Client_amd64. So this manual method is way above my paygrade. I'm trying but I'm below amature right now I'm must admit.
I need to find my old batch, I lost track of where I placed them. But more or less they were based on the thread on server room about adding the gui to a core server. Edit found them At the end I needed to SKUwithch back to server because the packages forced the installation to a Client SKU Also may be needed to remove anything from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\AlternateShells to get explorer.exe as the default shell (hence the proper GUI started) Code: cd /d U:\19041.1 dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-Features-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-Features-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-Features-WOW64-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-Features-WOW64-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Enterprise-Desktop-Shared-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Enterprise-Desktop-Shared-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Enterprise-Desktop-Shared-WOW64-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Enterprise-Desktop-Shared-WOW64-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package:"Microsoft-Windows-Desktop-Shared-Drivers-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package:"Microsoft-Windows-Desktop-Shared-Drivers-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-ShellExperienceHost-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-ShellExperienceHost-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-ShellLauncher-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-ShellLauncher-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-EmbeddedExp-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-EmbeddedExp-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-EmbeddedExp-WOW64-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Client-EmbeddedExp-WOW64-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"HyperV-UX-UI-Client-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"HyperV-UX-UI-Client-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Multimedia-RestrictedCodecsCore-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.19041.1.mum dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"Multimedia-RestrictedCodecsCore-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~it-IT~10.0.19041.1.mum" dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.cab rem dism /image:d:\ /add-package /packagepath:"microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~.cab" Obviously this is for 19041, I have no idea (yet) about changed package names and alike but you get the idea
