AOSC OS on WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)

Get Started

  1. Enable WSL. (https://aka.ms/wslinstall).
  2. Grab a WSAOSC binary from releases.
  3. Grab AOSC OS kernel-less tarball. (https://aosc.io/os-download, we recommend the "Container" variant).
  4. Decompress .tar.xz to get .tar file. (Using 7-Zip or xz command).
  5. Rename .tar file to install.tar.gz and move it to aosc-os.exe path.
  6. Run aosc-os.exe. AOSC OS will install in the same path.

Compile Manually

Windows

Open WSAOSC.sln in Visual Studio and compile.

or

Open VS command line tools, cd to WSAOSC directory and run: msbuild WSAOSC.sln /p:Configuration=Release

(change Release to Debug if you need debug version.)

Linux

Known issue

  • I/O performance is not ideal. Disabling Windows Defender and Windows Indexing Service for the rootfs directory may mitigate this issue.
