Before mounting the device, make sure that you have wsl2 in your enviroment:\n```\nwsl --version\n\n```\n\nIt should show you wsl version: 2, if not then set wsl as the following:\n```\nwsl --set-default-version 2\n\n```\n\nThen you need to mount the device on wsl:\n```\n\nwsl --mount \u003cvalue first column\u003e --bare\n\n```\n\nThis will mount the device. Run your linux distro on wsl and then check the device running:\n```\nlsblk\n\n```\n\nWhen you have found the device, use the **mount** command in the /mnt folder.\n\n# Donation\n\nIf you did find this guide usefull, please donate me at the following paypal address:\n\n```\nhttps://www.paypal.me/francescodisales\n```\n\nOr if you want to donate in cryptocurrencies, you can donate at the following Monero address:\n\n```\n4B9WQivaHfd3miDfPKEfCianocGpBx9d8FXycz2vmNW3aBDVKHgkBd9Gmapt4RBVEpTwnehujsiUBBehUiLvnEHs7VFstCC\n```\n\n\n\n\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffrancescodisalesgithub%2Fwsl-linux-drive-installer","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ffrancescodisalesgithub%2Fwsl-linux-drive-installer","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffrancescodisalesgithub%2Fwsl-linux-drive-installer/lists"}
