Thank you @Gamb1ts !

Feel free to ignore the bot's warnings on the masked systemd units, I need to go fix that !

The tar & manifest look great ! One small suggestion that I have would to use systemctl is-system-running in /usr/lib/wsl/wsl-oobe so we could get remove the sleep 25 and make the distribution start a bit faster.

Something like this should do the trick:

timeout 25 bash -c 'while ! systemctl is-system-running | grep -E "running|degraded" ; do sleep 1; done'  || echo "warning: timed out waiting for systemd to start"

[benhillis]

What's the goal of sleeping to wait for systemd in the oobe script? If you want to make sure that no user processes are launched before systemd is up, that should already be guaranteed as part of WSL. Is that not the behavior you are seeing?

[Gamb1ts]

Early in my testing I found that the system setup was too quick which led to issues using certain commands. However, this was prior to masking the recommended systemd units. I will re-visit this and see if in its current state the wait is necessary.

Unfortunately I will have to mark this as WIP until next week, we will need to change where we host the image. Next week I will supply the new URL and checksums.
