Subject: [Buildroot] Buildroot on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

Hi all,
Windows Subsystem for Linux 1.0 runs a userspace without a kernel, and
2.0 runs a full Linux Kernel inside a VM.
SkiffOS, using Buildroot, now supports WSL with the "virt/wsl" package.
This could be extracted from Skiff and submitted to mainline Buildroot
as a "board" configuration as well.
https://github.com/skiffos/SkiffOS/tree/master/configs/virt/wsl
The Buildroot system works as expected in the WSL environment. The
buildroot output tar.gz can be imported directly into WSL 2.0. WSL 1.0
requires using the WSL-DistroLauncher project to load the distribution
via a Windows Appx.
This is an interesting way to use Buildroot under Windows.
Best regards,
Christian Stewart
