Default Windows Server 2008 R2

I hate asking stupid questions, especially with this listed under compatibility in the Wiki:

Windows 7 - x64
Windows 8 - x64
Windows Server 2012 - x64

But is there any reason the installer won't work with Windows Server 2008 R2 (Datacenter edition)?

New installs of Windows Server 2012 R2 in a VM give me royal fits trying to get them properly bridged and connected to the local network. I have no idea why. Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 are connected out of the box when the install completes. It took a lot of messing with the first time around and now I have to set the server up all over again because of a bad update. 20 minutes of screwing around with the fresh install and I couldn't get it connected to the internet.


Was a little surprised to see Windows 7 in the list, but not Server 2008 R2 since they're practically the same OS.
