Components hive corruption in Server 2012 R2

DISM got a bit grumpy, errored out with 0x800f0906 "The source files could not be downloaded." The resulting cbs log is attached, only ~800k (there's a 1.5 GB archived log from yesterday :eek:)

Had to do a safe mode boot to rename the old hive, but everything is in place now. I'm doing the DISM scan now, and considering it hasn't failed within the first 15 seconds as it has previously, I'm pretty optimistic. Thank you! I'll post the log as soon as it's done.

Components hive corruption in Server 2012 R2

As some background info, one of the recurring problems that I am unable to deal with is that HKLM\COMPONENTS is inaccessible, and prevents me from attempting to load a backup copy I made before attempting to have the system recreate it. Trying to open the hive gives me a permission error...
