@winload_exe@wetdry.world @tauon@possum.city yeah, and I got DISM (microsoft's WIM tool) to successfully apply a WIM file to install linux, I just couldn't get the Windows installer to use it

@tendstofortytwo@social.treehouse.systems @tauon@possum.city because Setup expects a valid Windows image to not only display the built-in EULA, but also to perform last-minute servicing (with the user's chosen localization settings; keyboard layout, time, language) at the end of the deployment process. additional operations such as installing optional storage drivers and language packs and (if needed) full OS component assembly also have to be performed against the Windows image. a Linux distro simply isn't one.
