Hi, I seem to be having an issue with /etc/resolv.conf
I am running Fedora 36 as instructed here but for some reason I can't unlink to said file because it doesn't exist in the rootfs. If I attempt to write it myself, upon my next access to fedora through wsl, it's just gone... I have to rewrite the file any time that I want use dnf or anything else internet related (which is alot in linux). Can you help me solve this?
That is the thing, I don't need to edit /etc/resolv.conf. I need to create it. The file doesn't exist on boot, and every reboot of my system pulls the file system to the default state. So on every reboot, the file doesn't exist... my problem with that is DNF needs the access to the internet and without /etc/resolv.conf their isn't anything, and I tend to do things in steps... so having access to the net on boot is useful.
Ok, then maybe you can solve another question that I have.... I also seem to be having trouble with mounting a physical partition on my extra SSD. Keeps tossing out a error, with every attempt to mount it.
Would you have any ideas?

Thanks for trying to work through this! First question: do you need to edit /etc/resolv.conf? Have you tried it without making changes?

So, can you confirm: you had no Internet access before you tried changing /etc/resolv.conf?
Also, in /etc/wsl.conf, what is the current
generateResolvConfset to? True or false?Hopefully we can figure this out!
Well that solved it, it was originally false.... setting it to true corrects things
Thank you for the help
Excellent!

Hmmm... I have not tried to do that. What is the error?
It is tossing out error code -22 when I attempt to use
I can't say I am familiar with that message. It only gives a code and not a complete message? That is odd. Sorry I am not of more help.
