Hey all it’s me PastelAbyss and today we will be setting up Gentoo on WSL2! I hope you all enjoy this video and if you did, please like, comment, and subscribe! It would mean a lot! New videos coming soon!
NOTES:
You can actually set core count in .wslconfig under “processors” to the total threads your system has which you can check with task manager. Mine would be 12, so I set that in .wslconfig and changed /etc/portage/make.conf’s MAKEOPTS to “-j12 -l13” to utilize all threads I set in .wslconfig.
Set the working directory of wsl in terminal to %USERPROFILE%, not the setting I put.
Set “generateResolvConf = false” in [network] section of /etc/wsl.conf and “nameserver = 1.1.1.1” in /etc/resolv.conf if you get issues with internet through WSL2.
Set “kernelCommandLine = systemd.firstboot=0” in .wslconfig if you have trouble with systemd not working properly in WSL2.
