Regarding Linux kernel on Windows 10, if you're referring to The Linux subsystem, there's no Linux kernel there, it's a Windows subsystem implementing the Linux system calls directly. Unless you're referring to full Hyper-V virtualisation, where you can run FreeBSD just as you can run Linux.
- sirmike_ 8y agoI also didn't think the canonical effort went anywhere? Maybe I'm wrong. Re:wsl You are correct thank you for the catch. I was missing a few key words.
- rleigh 8y agoI'm not sure what you mean by "went anywhere". It's perfectly functional as it stands. The main missing piece is proper support in the installer for using it as a root filesystem. Currently this requires manual setup, which is tedious, but even this is functional once done.
