[BUG] Can't Install AlmaLinux:latest #241

Closed goodbot closed 3 months ago

goodbot commented 4 months ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

Current Behavior

I've successfully downloaded and installed 6 other distros. When I try to download/install AlmaLinux via the command "dockerhub:almalinux:9.3 (or :latest)" the process steps through downloading and extracting, then finally the message "Creating instance. This might take a while...". 15 hours later I kill this process, then "cancel" out of the setup screen: AlmaLinux is not installed (my WSL2-Distros\AlmaLinux9 folder is empty, while my \tmp\library_almalinux_9 folder has 2 files in it: "layer_0.tar.gz" 32 bytes, and "layer_1.tar.gz" 65 MB).

Expected Behavior

I expected a new "AlmaLinux9" OS instance to appear in my portal/gui (but it didn't happen).

Steps To Reproduce

1.) In this environment (see below)... 2.) I had WSL Manager v1.8.11 open... 3.) I hit the "+" button in the left hand column... 4.) I filled out the form for creating a new instance... 5.) I hit the "Create" button... 6.) The process stepped through "downloading", then "installing" and finally "creating instance. Please wait a while"... 7.) I waited 15 hours... then lost my patience and gave up, hit the "cancel" button and returned to the home screen... 8.) The instance was not installed... 9.) Now I'm here.

Environment

WSL version: 2.1.5.0
Kernel version: 5.15.146.1-2
WSLg version: 1.0.60
MSRDC version: 1.2.5105

Anything else?
