Install Anaconda on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

Thanks everyone for commenting/contributing! I made this in college for a class and I no longer really use the technology. I encourage you all to help each other, but I probably won't be answering questions anymore.

This article is also on my blog, too.

Steps to Install Anaconda on Windows Ubuntu Terminal

  1. Install WSL (Ubuntu for Windows - can be found in Windows Store). I recommend the latest version (I'm using 18.04) because there are some bugs they worked out during 14/16 (microsoft/WSL#785)

3. Create a new VM using the ubuntu-netbook-remix-i386-live.vdi (use the existing vdi option)
4. Attach the ubuntu-netbook-remix-i386.vdi as a Primary Slave
5. Start the VM (boot)
6. Install
