# Running on WSL
|
||
|
|
Running a proper ansible install on WSL requires updating to Debian 11.
|
||
|
|
1. Open Powershell as Administrator
|
||
|
|
2. Install Debian with `wsl.exe --install --distribution Debian`
|
||
|
|
3. Launch the instance with `wsl.exe -d Debian`
|
||
|
|
4. Change the apt repositories with `sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list` and update it to look like this:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main contrib non-free
|
||
|
|
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates main contrib non-free
|
||
|
|
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib non-free
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
5. Clean and update the cache with `sudo apt clean && sudo apt update`
|
||
|
|
6. Upgrade all packages with `sudo apt full-upgrade`
|
||
|
|
7. Remove dangling packages with `sudo apt autoremove`
|
||
|
|
8. Log out with `exit`, shutdown wsl with `wsl.exe --shutdown`, then start it back up with `wsl.exe -d Debian`.
|
||
|
|
9. Make sure everything worked with `cat /etc/os-release`
