I have Debian 11 on Windows Subsystem for Linux, but it is using a version 4 kernel. (I have established that it is debian 11 by looking in /etc/issue, and /etc/apt/sources). The Kernel says it is Microsoft: 4.4.0-19041-Microsoft #2311-Microsoft So I guess this is not really a kernel? as the version is a Windows version number, although I am on Windows 19045.2604. Who supports Debian 11 for WSL? It is in the Microsoft Store. Why is it on version 4 kernel?
Hello, Warning: I do not use WSL1/WSL2but I would say that your Debian was installed as a WSL1 distro (typical 4.4 pseudo linux kernel (translator, sort of)) and you could migrate it to WSL2 (5.15 kernel presently, in a Hyper-V VM).
