(continued as a hopefully more concise and focused rewrite of my older post)
Given an existing installation of Windows 10 on a disk, is it possible to use the DISM tool to capture it and apply it to an arbitrary NTFS partition on another disk? That is to say, does the answer to this post (capture, apply, bcdboot, profit) suffice in this situation? Capturing and applying images is the obvious purpose of DISM, but I cannot find any answers on whether such images can be deployed to arbitrary locations.
Assume that the target machines are identical in terms of hardware (actually, one of them is the same machine itself, just using a different disk), and that all of the target partitions have the same size as the source installation, but not necessarily the same sector offset.
