Research direction
Start at Scripts/2_CreateParentDisks.ps1 around line 735, where the DHCP role configuration looks for the Ethernet interface alias. Reproduce the setup with the Japanese Windows Server ISO or inspect how the interface alias is obtained, then verify that DHCP configuration succeeds without manually renaming the localized interface.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The script looks for an interface with an alias Ethernet while configuring the DHCP role, but will fail if you use an non-English Windows Server iso. In my case I was using 14393.0.161119-1705.RS1_REFRESH_SERVER_EVAL_X64FRE_JA-JP.ISO for the iso and the interface alias was イーサネット.

As an workaround, I had to logon and rename the interface to Ethernet to proceed.
