I came accross many problems installing SP 2010 on a Windows Server 2012 R2 server, mainly because the Powershell version (4) did not support a whole bunch of the PS commands in the script.
Also, all commands that had to do with configuring IIS or Managing the Server were incompatible.
The errors were mainly on :
- import-module WebAdministration.psd1
- servermanager.psd1
I actually could go thru the installation by temporarely replacing those 2 files by the Windows 2008 R2 version of the files. Then the script completed.
We also had to add "-version 2" in the -ArgumentList of all the Powershell commands in the script, for many commands were not backwards compatible (or so it seamed).
Anyhow ... keep in mind it might be easier to install SP2010 on Windows 2012 R2 manually ... until the script is updated ...

I struggled getting this to work as well, but then realized... how often will folks be installing the oldest version of SharePoint that AutoSPInstaller supports, with the newest version of Windows? Hence no fix is planned...
