WSL setup notes

Distro

Use Debian, Ubuntu seems to be quite outdated (ie. SSH is too old for FIDO2) Install it through M$ shop/whatever

Turning on systemd (source: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/systemd)

At /etc/wsl.conf:

[boot]
systemd=true

Then restart WSL:

wsl --shutdown

Mounting external drive

0. Forget about mounting Windows bootdrive partition - won't work

Check name of drive in PowerShell using wmic:

wmic diskdrive list brief
Caption                     DeviceID            Model                       Partitions  Size
SanDisk Extreme USB Device  \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE1  SanDisk Extreme USB Device  2           64017354240
HFM001TD3JX013N             \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE0  HFM001TD3JX013N             8           1024203640320

Mount to WSL:

wsl --mount \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE1

dmesg should show new drive/partitions

Yubikey (WIP)

Passthrough using usbip (source: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/connect-usb)

Install USBIPD-WIN:

winget install --interactive --exact dorssel.usbipd-win

List USB devices:

>usbipd list
Connected:
BUSID  VID:PID    DEVICE                                                        STATE
1-1    1050:0407  Urządzenie wejściowe USB, Czytnik Microsoft Usbccid Smart...  Shared
1-3    0b05:19b6  Urządzenie wejściowe USB                                      Not shared

Then attach to USB key on host ie. (need admin rights):

usbipd bind -b 1-1

And attach this to WSL (done automagically no need for usbip magic in WSL guest):

usbipd attach --wsl --busid 1-1
usbipd: info: Using WSL distribution 'Debian' to attach; the device will be available in all WSL 2 distributions.
usbipd: info: Using IP address 172.25.224.1 to reach the host.
