Replace Ubuntu with openSUSE in Bash on Windows 10 and enjoy Linux
If you have been following Techworm, you will know that you can run Ubuntu Apps on Windows using Bash. Microsoft brought the fun and power of Linux to Windows 10 with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). This allowed the Windows 10 users to run Bash on Ubuntu on Windows 10 and enjoy Ubuntu Apps without having to install the Ubuntu distro separately.
Now your Linux experience on Windows 10 is bound to get a further refill with OpenSuse Linux distro. OpenSUSE has given the users an option to run openSUSE inside your Windows 10 installation. This way, you can run most openSUSE Apps within Windows 10 without having to install the Operating System separately like Ubuntu with Bash.
In a blog post, Sr. Product Manager – SUSE Linux Enterprise at SUSE, Hannes Kühnemund has published a detailed tutorial on how to install a SUSE Linux distribution on Windows 10 PC/laptops. Currently, the users have two options — openSUSE Leap 42.2 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2.
If you are a Linux lover, you can now enjoy OpenSuse along with Ubuntu thanks to Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).
