Thanks for your input Petter.
I was thinking about the issue over the weekend. Here's a few thoughts.
First, Microsoft has an article at <
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/systemd#how-to-enable-systemd>.
But it is not very useful since it is trying to enable Systemd. (Thanks
Alfie!)
Second, we can convert from Systemd to SysV. That may be the best path for
WSL since folks like me are simply trying to get a command prompt
(terminal) with classic Unix & Linux commands. We are not trying to run a
full blown vm with multi-user capabilities.
Third, would running in single-user mode sidestep the problem or make
locking less of an issue? I think we can enable single-user mode in
Systemd with the command `sudo systemctl rescue`.
Any thoughts?
