WSL2 is just a Hyper-V VM with some UI integrations. It uses an actual Linux kernel rather than a NT kernel personality, so systemd should work like in any other VM.
- vetinari 6y agoIt is not just Hyper-V VM with some UI integrations. While it uses actual Linux kernel, it does not use actual init system as a just a VM would. It runs Microsoft's /init, which does not handle service management. Not even SysV ones via /etc/init.d. So if you need service managment, you won't find it under WSL2.
