Determine how you are going to deploy SharePoint 2013. In this case, SharePoint is being installed to a server lab. The installation will consist of a Windows 2008R2 server and a 2008 R2 SQL server for database functions.
1. Obtain a copy of SharePoint Enterprise 2013 with Service Pack one integrated.
2. Extract the iso to a folder.

The requirements for SharePoint are different for Windows Server 2012 and did not work out of the box. Multiple errors were received installing SharePoint to Server 2012, so I went with Server 2012.

It will take awhile to download all of the needed prerequisites and install them depending on your hardware and network connection.

11. Success! Select Finish to close.

However, It may be a good idea to test the instance to ensure you haven’t missed any prerequisites. I reran the prerequisites installer again to ensure I didn’t miss anything.

Next, you will connect a SQL server in the next post.
