Can't detect RPI-RP2 pico disk when in WSL2.0

[HughGrant]

My rust dev env is set up in WSL, I plug my rp pi pico and windows surely detects it.

However, the elf2uf2 depends on sysinfo to dectect the pico uf2 disk.
This is fine if you set up the rust env under windows, but you know it's much more easier to set it up in linux, so I choose WSL.
I know this could be a issue due to the WSL, not this crate, just wanna mention here.

I guess I'll have to manually build the uf2 and flush it by myself for now.

The problem with such specific issues is that I can't test by myself. :-/

The best I can recommend is to try to find out which syscall needs to be updated in sysinfo in order for you to have the missing information.

@HughGrant By default, WSL does not have access to windows USB devices -- so that may be your issue. Historically, it hasn't been possible to 'pass-through' USB to WSL like a standard VM, but it seems like this may now be possible: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/connect-usb

@mlsvrts thanks a lot for mentioning this. Such a hassle to get both world working together, I got Manjaro dual boot with win11 on my laptop, guess I shouldn't ditch my MBP for this windows gaming laptop, windows is really bad at some aspects, especially for programming.
