Due to what our IT department can support, I am issued a Windows laptop for

starting to get Windows 10 laptops so I am evaluating doing my builds using the
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) by building a poky/morty image. Overall it
seems to be working. I've had an issue that I've worked through and other
issues that I'm not quite sure what is going on.
Hi Brian,
I have been trying the same thing attempting to build Automotive Grade
Linux from Linux for Windows subsystem.
We have many adopter of AGL who also receive Windows PC from their IT
department. While VM work, they impose a serious limitation on memory
and CPU usage.
Does anyone else think doing embedded linux development on windows
machines is a ridiculous situation, and needs to be discussed with
companies management? IT departments should either support product R&D
work (because at the end of the day that is where the company makes
money), or stay out of the way and let engineers self-manage their
computers, including installing weird operating systems.
