WSL2
SkiffOS is a minimal cross-compiled OS (180MB for WSL2) which provides a shim to operate other distributions in Docker containers without modification across a wide variety of target platforms, handling firmware, kernel, & platform support.
The WSL2 build with a Gentoo core container is available for download as a build artifact - skiffos-wsl-2020.11.6.tar.gz.zip. Import it to WSL with wsl.exe --set-default-version 2 and wsl.exe --import SkiffOS C:\SkiffOS .\skiffos-wsl-2020.11.6.tar.gz. Enter the Gentoo environment with su - core. Edit /mnt/persist/skiff/core/config.yaml to configure alternative user IDs and containers.
You can configure GWSL to run X apps in Windows. If you want GWSL to detect all of your applications, map the root user to the core container in config.yaml:
users:
root:
container: core
containerUser: core
createContainerUser: true
containerShell:
- "/bin/bash"
Then, GWSL will detect and auto-integrate all of your Core container apps:
