Installation fails

This is about installing the One Drive for Business Client into a bottle with Office 2010 installed.
For now, installation fails with "This requires a newer version of Windows". It might be that this could be fixed by installing Office 2010 into a Windows 7 bottle.

I'm currently installing it now into a windows seven bottle. It flew to about 67% and is now crawling along gradually completing, I hope. I installed everything for .NET from 3.5 up to and including 4.6 CLR and core fonts into a windows 7 bottle. It doesn't look like it will be successful but at least it will attempt to start the install.

Thanks for testing Bill. What I am most interested in is the integration with Word 2010, which presumably requires Word to be installed. Please do keep me posted. Any idea how to force installation of Office 2010 into a Windows 7 bottle? (you/we might also check Office 2013/365 entries, as installer seems to be based on this)
