Windows 10 WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)
|
|
********************************************
|
|
|
|
If you are running a recent version of Windows 10 you can make use of the
|
|
built-in functionality to natively run Ubuntu binaries directly on a standard
|
|
command-prompt. This allows you to use software such as the :ref:`Zephyr SDK
|
|
<toolchain_zephyr_sdk>` without setting up a virtual machine.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
Windows 10 version 1803 has an issue that will cause CMake to not work
|
|
properly and is fixed in version 1809 (and later).
|
|
More information can be found in :github:`Zephyr Issue 10420 <10420>`.
|
|
|
|
#. `Install the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)`_.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
For the Zephyr SDK to function properly you will need Windows 10
|
|
build 15002 or greater. You can check which Windows 10 build you are
|
|
running in the "About your PC" section of the System Settings.
|
|
If you are running an older Windows 10 build you might need to install
|
|
the Creator's Update.
|
|
|
|
#. Follow the Ubuntu instructions in the :ref:`installation_linux` document.
