Set up and use a “bottle” namespace to run systemd under WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). To run these from Windows rather than an already-running distribution, precede them with wsl. More information: GitHub - arkane-systems/genie: A quick way into a systemd "bottle" for WSL.

  • Initialize the bottle (run once, at start):

genie -i

  • Run a login shell inside the bottle:

genie -s

  • Run a specified command inside the bottle:

genie -c {{command}}
