Em se tratando de Linux, vale citar que o fato de uma distribuição não estar neste lista, não significa que não funcione. Apenas não tem o suporte da MS. O Ubuntu 12.4 agora possui suporte, mas já funcionava no Hyper-V no Windows Server 2008 R2, inclusive sem a necessidade de instalação de IC, pois já vem de forma nativa no kernel. Testei essa distribuição no ano passado e inclusive publiquei um post sobre.
O Fedora 18, assim como o Ubuntu 12.4, também funciona sem a necessidade instalação de IC conforme evidência abaixo. Instalei tanto a versão x86 quanto x64 em uma VM no Hyper-V 2012.
Mandem relatos de testes de outras distribuiçoes Linux que não foram citadas neste post! Em breve testarei mais distros.
