  • Howto : RHEL 8.2 running under WSL2

    Posted on

    I want to get an instance of RHEL 8.2 running under WSL2 and register that with my developer account.

    Questions: (If you have actually done this)

    1. What would I download? Where would I get it?
    2. What would I need to do to get this up and running?

    I am looking for some minimal layout to run a shell only under MS WSL2


    Red Hat is missing out on the last mile of reaching developers by not offering this in the Microsoft store.

    Ubuntu is there, SUSE is there, Debian is there, many others are there.

    Red Hat does a lot for developer engagement, except for the last mile things.

    I would very much like to help here.
