Build 29550 Bare Metal ReFS Boot: Server Roles installation fails with 0xc004000d and/or 0x800f0922
When installing Windows Server Build 29550 on Bare Metal with the OS drive (C:) formatted as ReFS, the installation of core Server Roles (DHCP, Hyper-V, DNS, Windows Server Backup) fails consistently.
Error returned by PowerShell (Install-WindowsFeature) and/or Server Manager: 0xc004000d (One or several parent features are disabled). CBS.log shows TiWorker failing with [HRESULT = 0x800f0922 - CBS_E_INSTALLERS_FAILED].
Troubleshooting done:
- Same ISO on KVM (formatted as NTFS) works perfectly.
- Same hardware, formatted as ReFS on older Build 29531, worked perfectly.
- "Leaf" features like Media Foundation install fine, but complex roles fail.
- sfc /scannow did not find any integrity violation
- DISM RestoreHealth fails with 0x80004005
Conclusion: There is a CBS / Hard Link regression when reading the Component Store (WinSxS) on a ReFS boot drive in build 29550.
