Dear Members,
I was able to install Proxmox 8 via WSL2 and Genie, (My Kudos to https://github.com/gaudat/gauup/blob/master/homelab/pve-wsl2.md)
I was able to login to Proxmox GUI and the rest but for some reason I cannot use iscsi module. Here what I get.
Any idea where I can find the iscsi module? Do I need to compile the kernel ?
Update: It seems that indeed I need to re-compile the kernel. I found this post https://www.starwindsoftware.com/blog/enable-block-storage-devices-in-wsl2 so I will try this one first and I will revert.

and installing the Insider release to compare performance. I can't install proxmox on the bare metal on this machine yet as I'm waiting on some WSON8 adapters to be able to unlock the bios and disable secureboot. Have a chance to learn WSL config in the mean time I guess.
