Hi All, I am preparing to install openlane-2. At 5mins in the below video it states that the nix installation requires a windows subsystem for Linux (WSL).

However, I don't see any mention of this in the below link: https://openlane2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started/common/nix_installation/installation_linux.html So my question is simple - can the nix installation be run natively on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04)? If not, must I go for the docker installation? Thanks, Diarmuid

Nix can be installed in natively Ubuntu

Perfect! Thanks @Vijayan Krishnan

@Diarmuid Collins We only used WSL2 for this demonstration as Windows is the most popular operating system. We actually recommend either Linux or macOS.
