Seems overly complicated. I installed Docker CE right from docker.com in Ubuntu 20.04 on WSL2 with only 2 'issues' both due to lack of systemd: 1.) Missing cgroups under /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd mount -t cgroup -o none,name=systemd cgroup /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd 2.) No launch at 'startup' put the docker start in your .bashrd Also, 'Kind'(1) works really well for setting up K8s envs in WSL2 1)https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/ https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/

  Good tips! Yes, if Ubuntu from the Store is your flavor, then your setup makes huge sense. I am obsessed with experimenting with methods that can work on a variety of WSL distros. Give it a couple months, and I may be back to your straightforward suggestion. For now, I am really satisfied with my present configuration, though. Time will tell.
