Server Core is proving to be a versatile infrastructure platform. After installing your basic Server Core installation, configuring network interfaces, activating, enabling remote management (through RDP or WinRS in combination with WinRM) and changing the look and feel you might feel you're ready to install additional roles and/or features.

You can install 9 roles and 16 features, without even searching for the installation media and if you're happy with your Server Core installation running some roles and some features, simply remove the sources of the other roles and features to make your server even leaner and meaner.
