Description Guillaume GARDET 2024-01-31 07:26:51 UTC

openSUSE Tumbleweed WSL from Microsoft store is the x86_64 flavor instead of arm64. 

Installing manually from arm64 appx [0] is fine.

Without any TW WSL Distro already installed, does the following work when sitting at a cmd/powershell prompt in 'Windows for ARM'?

wsl --install openSUSE-Tumbleweed --web-download

From Windows Dev Kit 2023, it downloads and installs the right arm64 flavor. Then, Firstboot is started for inital configuration and it works as expected with aarch64 Tumbleweed.
