Redundant

This feature has already been implemented, or is already achievable with existing methods.

I am trying to make a Dockerfile that builds a dmb file with Windows Nano Server and PowerShell, however I have noticed DreamMaker doesn't want to run while compiling the docker image because it doesn't have a head. Or at least I think that may be the reason.

I am not sure why this is the case, but I suspect since Windows isn't normally headless the Dream Maker executable cannot be run headless.

Could there already be a way to run it headless or could the team implement a way for it to be run healess on Windows?

Lummox JR	dm.exe is the tool for that.

ThakyZ	I have used dm.exe but I cannot run it via a nanoserver I have to use servercore because it actually has a head. Unless I am missing something and I need to install a VisualC package or something? Also, I used DreamMaker in place of dm.exe because I thought that was what it was.
