Notes For Testing Annual Channel

Creating the VHD

Best run in an Azure VM so your not having to download/upload large files (WS2022 seems to be fine)

Download the Annual Channel ISO

Download annual channel ISO (goto https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windowsinsiderpreviewserver NOTE: if you also need OpenSSH download the corresponding "Microsoft Server Language and Optional Features Preview" ISO

Optional - If you need OpenSSH

There are a few approaches to accomplish this - to reduce more downloads I'm copying the FOD files into the VHD.

  1. Mount the corresponding "Microsoft Server Language and Optional Features Preview" ISO
  2. Copy out the FOD Files "mkdir c:\temp\OpenSSHFOD", "copy E:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures\OpenSSH-* c:\temp\OpenSSHFOD"
