Copy-Item error creating Nano server image

i'm following documentation creating nano server image (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt126167.aspx) , i've run issues.  i'm doing on windows 7 machine.

first, step run command 

import-module nanoserverimagegenerator.psm1 -verbose

doesn't seem work on machine unless add `.\` in front of psm1 file.

the second , blocking issue i've run command

new-nanoserverimage -mediapath f:\ -basepath .\base -targetpath .\nano1\nano.vhd -computername nano1 –guestdrivers

terminates following error:

warning: terminating due error. see log file at: c:\users\semoore\appdata\local\temp\nanoserverimagegenerator.log  copy-item : incorrect function.  @ c:\nanoserver\nanoserverimagegenerator.psm1:1545 char:5  +     copy-item -path $script:sourcespath\* -destination $script:basetoolspath -ex ...  + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~      + categoryinfo          : notspecified: (:) [copy-item], ioexception      + fullyqualifiederrorid : system.io.ioexception,microsoft.powershell.commands.copyitemcommand

any ideas might going on here?  the log file doesn't give additional data.

hi smooretech,

>>doesn't seem work on machine unless add `.\` in front of psm1 file.

you may post in powershell forum issue of importing module.

about failure of command:

>>i'm doing on windows 7 machine.

i'm afraid not done on windows 7 far know.

try on server 2012, 2012 r2 or windows 10.

best regards,

leo
