     I downloded the Server Insider version using my Microsoft account. (I am a member of the Windows 10 Insider program).

     

       The product keys for Standard and Datacenter are listed in the release announcement on the Windows Insider website. It also tells you how to download the ISO.

I am stalled during install. I was prompted to set new password.
C:\Users\Administrator>
What do I input to continue the install?

This is a Windows Core server edition. Install RSAT tools (Can be downloaded from where you downloaded the ISO) on a Windows 10 client to configure the server.

    PowerShell
    Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://aka.ms/wsl-ubuntu-1604 -OutFile ~/Ubuntu.zip -UseBasicParsing
    This is where I can advance not further.
    I keep getting prompted aka.ms is unresolved.

      Just tried that from my Windows 10. Works fine. Maybe a DNS error. Have you tried to ping aka.ms?

        It is a DNS issue. How can we find a solution?
