I followed @alexandair’s advice and it worked. A step by step though is that you’ll need to do the following. (I also put the modules in my home directory, not sure if that is correct)

Install-Package -Name AzureRM.NetCore.Preview -Source https://www.powershellgallery.com/api/v2/ -ProviderName NuGet -ExcludeVersion -Destination $home/powershell/modules
Import-Module $home/powershell/modules/AzureRM.Profile.NetCore.Preview
Import-Module $home/powershell/modules/AzureRM.Resources.NetCore.Preview
Import-Module $home/powershell/modules/AzureRM.NetCore.Preview
Login-AzureRmAccount

Note: When I ran the command Get-Module -ListAvailable AzureRM was not in the list and it seems that when you exit Powershell the AzureRM module goes away. Also, before I started I upgraded dotnet to version 1.0.0-preview3-003246

@dfr0 - you’ll need to raise this in the Azure Powershell repo over at https://github.com/azure/azure-powershell as this isn’t a PowerShell issue
