Install SharePoint 2013 on a single server with SQL Server
  https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262243
  Run the Microsoft SharePoint Products Preparation Tool, which installs all prerequisites to use SharePoint 2013.
  In the folder where you downloaded the SharePoint 2013 software, locate and then run   prerequisiteinstaller.exe.

After you complete the Microsoft SharePoint Products Preparation Tool, you must also install the following:

• KB 2554876
• KB 2708075
• KB 2759112
• KB 2765317

Issue during the prerequisites installation by Preparation Tools:

I had an error whenever runs prepration tools as below:

[Error]
  The tool was unable to install Application Server Role. Web Server (IIS) Role
  - Application Server Role. Web Server (IIS) Role: configuration error

<In Log File>
2015-12-18 11:48:03 - "C:\Windows\system32\ServerManagerCmd.exe" -inputpath "C:\Users\HSALNY~1\AppData\Local\Temp\Pre4BC9.tmp.XML"
2015-12-18 11:48:03 - Error: Unable to install (2)
2015-12-18 11:48:03 - Error: [In HRESULT format] (-2147024894)
2015-12-18 11:48:03 - Last return code (2)

Actually, there is no "ServerManagerCmd.exe" module under system32 folder, but "ServerManager.exe".

It was almost solved by helps on Chris (ChristopherW) Blog but still having issues on "Application Server Role. Web Server (IIS) Role: configuration error"
Server 2012 R2 and SharePoint 2013: The tool was unable to install Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role

Point: Run his PowerShell script, reboot system and rerun preparation tool.

Some of the user could solve the issue by his solution, though.
