      I have issues flashing the bootloader to the Spresense when using WSL2.
      I am using USBIPD-WIN to establish USB device support as reccomended by the WSL2 documentation.
      This seems to work as the Spresense is detected in the VM at the anticipated adress (/dev/ttyUSB0).
      However, attempting to flash yeilds the following error message.

      Error creating child process!
      CreateProcessW: Incorrect function.
      

      Flashing works perfectly when using MSYS but due to the slow compilation speed i would prefer using a VM.

        Hello, @Jolle
        I haven't tried to do that myself.
        I can try it on my side and see if I get the same error, but on the meantime I have tagged you in an old topic where some users were also trying to use wsl2.
        Maybe they've seen this before.
