I am wanting to enable and install the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) feature from within a Docker windowsservrecore container. However, due to the fact that Docker containers are more like full-environment-processes than VMs, and because WSL feature installation requires a 'system reboot'; this has proven troublesome.
I have seen solutions that other people have figured out for installing features that normally 'require reboot' in a Docker windows container.
- e.g. Active Directory support: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/containerstuff/2017/01/30/create-a-container-with-active-directory-support/
- e.g. Server Media Foundation: https://forums.docker.com/t/installing-server-media-foundation-in-a-docker-container/23587
So I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts or has managed something similar for getting WSL to install in a Docker windows container?
Thanks in advance.
