Wait, what do you mean exactly? Isn't WSL2 just a VM essentially? Don't you mean it'll run on Linux (which you also can run on WSL2)?
Or will it really only work with WSL2? I was excited as I thought it was just a Linux Workstation, but if WSL2 gets involved/is required somehow, then I need to run the other direction.
- awestroke 2y agoNo, nobody will run windows on this. It's meant to run NVIDIAs own flavor of Ubuntu with a patched kernel
- hx8 2y agoYes, WSL2 is essentially a highly integrated VM. I think it's a bit of a joke to call Ubuntu WSL2, because it seems like most Ubuntu installs are either VMs for Windows PCs or on Azure Cloud.
