Good luck with that mate, it's a Linux system designed for;
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES)
UNIX derivates, for example OpenBSD or FreeBSD
Mac OSX

You could install it on a vmware system but even then server 08r2 won't like it and you would be better putting it on a basic Windows 7 host machine... is this just for a school exam or something that doesn't need to run under real loads?
