Do you have your tarred up Linux chroot, named "install.tar.gz" inside your build folder?

An install.tar.gz is not included in the repro. I agree the instructions could be a bit more clear about how to generate one, I'll get that resolved.

The Powershell error plainly says what is wrong and what you need to do to correct it: The requested operation requires elevation.
