Having openSUSE and MS Windows installed on the same computer is usually fairly simple if MS Windows was installed first. During installation openSUSE will detect MS Windows and the bootloader will display a menu on each startup letting you choose whether to boot openSUSE or MS Windows. OpenSUSE needs to be installed on a separate partition/disk. How to install openSUSE Leap bash shell in Windows 10. Sudo tar -C rootfs -Jxf openSUSE-42.2.tar.xz exit. Open Windows command Prompt and make a backup of Ubuntu, by running these commands, one. The openSUSE distribution is a stable, easy to use and complete multi-purpose Linux distribution. Now you can launch openSUSE 42 by typing “opensuse-42” into the command-line, or by clicking the openSUSE 42 tile in the Windows 10 Start Menu. OpenSUSE believes the best results come from people collaborating and having fun. Being different from other open-source communities is what makes openSUSE desirable. We are not the conventional community and our community’s efforts determines the path of the project.
Moderation
Every version of each package undergoes a rigorous moderation process before it goes live that typically includes:
- An anonymous reader writes: 'Running Linux binaries natively on Windows. That sounds awesome indeed,' writes Hannes Kuhnemund, the senior product manager for SUSE Linux Enterprise.He's written a blog post describing how to run openSUSE Leap 42.2 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2 on Windows 10, according to Fossbytes, which reports that currently users have two options - openSUSE.
- How to run openSUSE Linux on Windows 10 When Microsoft added Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) to Windows 10, it became possible to run other Linux distributions such as openSUSE - and not just.
- Security, consistency, and quality checking
- Human moderators who give final review and sign off

With the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), you can now run Linux binaries natively on Windows 10. With WSL, you can now run native Bash on Ubuntu on Windows. You can now run Bash scripts, Linux command-line tools like sed, awk, grep, and you can even try Linux-first tools like Ruby, Git, Python, etc. directly on Windows. You can also access your Windows filesystem from within Bash allowing you to work on the same set of files using your preferred Windows tools or Linux command-line tools. Microsoft partnered with Ubuntu to bring their Linux version to Windows natively.
If you prefer SUSE Linux distro, you can now install it on Windows 10 as well. You have currently two options, openSUSE Leap 42.2 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2. Below are the simple steps you have to follow to install a SUSE Linux distribution inside WSL.
- Enable the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL): A great step-by-step guide can be found here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide. During the install you will need to create a non-root user and password. I’ll refer to this user as <linux_user> in the next steps.
Install Opensuse 42.2 Windows 10 Free
- Download the openSUSE docker userspace:
- Open the bash shell, which you find in your Windows Start menu under “Bash on Ubuntu on Windows” (click the Windows button, type “bash” and then hit Enter). True, it’s still Ubuntu but we only need to run a few commands there before we can replace it.
- Extract the openSUSE userspace (ignore any warnings) and exit the bash shell:
- Backup the old rootfs (Ubuntu) and copy the new openSUSE rootfs. Open a Command Prompt window (Windows key, enter “cmd” and hit Enter) and run the following commands:
- The new openSUSE userspace will, of course, not include the user that you created when you installed Bash for Windows, nor does it have things like ‘sudo’. To start just set ‘root’ as the default user. While still in the Command Prompt window run the following:When exiting the command prompt, start bash from the start menu (Windows key, enter “bash” and hit Enter) and you have your openSUSE Leap 42.2 environment running within WSL.
- Now let’s also change the orange icon to a cool green one. The one I’m using is coming from iconarchive.com and can be found through this link: http://www.iconarchive.com/show/nuoveXT-icons-by-saki/Apps-suse-icon.html
Download the .ico file and copy it to %localappdata%lxss. In a command shell execute the commands (or simply use Windows Explorer, whichever suits you best):
