Sounds remarkably similar to a question I got yesterday from our doc team - did 
you also ping smsdocs? :)

Looking at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj679892.aspx:

"Because Windows Server 2012 Foundation comes pre-installed with your server 
hardware, you do not need to separately obtain and then install the hardware 
and operating system."

So there's that.

If it's just Windows, then the client should work on it, but I'm not sure 
whether it's anything we tested. (I'm not authoritative on that, so don't quote 
me regarding client support. :)) As for OS Deployment, I know we don't test 
with it, so it will likely fall into the bucket of SKUs that are not supported 
for OSD. That doesn't mean it doesn't work, just not anything we've tried, so 
YMMV.

I know doc team is aware of it, so there may be an update to those articles in 
the future.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] ConfigMgr 2012 :: Windows Server 2012 Foundation OSD

Hey folks,

The ConfigMgr documentation only seems to mention Windows Server 2012 
Foundation in the context of not being supported as a host operating system for 
a ConfigMgr Site System. Does anyone know if Windows Server 2012 Foundation is 
supported as: 1) a ConfigMgr 2012 client agent, and 2) a deployable ConfigMgr 
OSD OS?
