Hi WSL users,
We have released an update of Ubuntu WSL 22.04 to the Microsoft Store.
This is a bug fix release that addresses several issues found during installation. The entire list of issues can be found on Github.
It also contains an up to date root file system of Ubuntu 22.04.
You can also test the development release of Ubuntu with Ubuntu Preview.
Do not hesitate to report any bug you may find.
Enjoy!
I have a question please:
Can I enable Real-time kernel in WSL2?
If yes, I keep getting this error:
Cannot install Real-time kernel on a container.
Could not enable Real-time kernel.
Also using pro status --all, the output is
realtime-kernel yes n/a Ubuntu kernel with PREEMPT_RT patches integrated
ā generic yes n/a Generic version of the RT kernel (default)
ā intel-iotg yes n/a RT kernel optimized for Intel IOTG platform
ā raspi yes n/a 24.04 Real-time kernel optimised for Raspberry Pi
If the answer is no, why? and is there any plan to support?
I am running Ubuntu-22.04 on top of WSL2 on Windows 11 using an Intel machine.
Thank you in advance.
Hey there. The architecture of WSL2 means that all Linux distributions use the same Microsoft supported kernel under the hood. This means that Canonical cannot provide features on WSL that are unique to the Ubuntu kernel.
It is possible to swap in an alternative kernel yourself but it is not a supported path Iām afraid.
