Trellis on Windows 11, WSL2

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to get Trellis up and running on a windows machine. Work makes me use a PC instead of Mac which I hate but what can you do. I have followed the guide but still running into a few issues.

  1. Setup WSL2 and Ubuntu 22.04
  2. Installed Python3, HomeBrew, trellis-cli, vagrant, virtualbox
    a. Vagrant - Ubuntu and Windows (2.3.4)
    b. VirtualBox - Ubuntu and Windows (7.0)
  3. From Ubuntu - /home/user/projects/ trellis new opco.com - Everything worked as expected
  4. trellis up

Output Below

Starting galaxy role install process
	- composer (1.9.0) is already installed, skipping.
	- ntp (2.3.1) is already installed, skipping.
	- logrotate (v0.0.5) is already installed, skipping.
	- swapfile (v2.0.36) is already installed, skipping.
	- mailpit (v1.0.0) is already installed, skipping.

	Running command => vagrant up
	Vagrant failed to initialize at a very early stage:
	
	Vagrant is unable to use the VirtualBox provider from the Windows Subsystem for
	Linux without access to the Windows environment. Enabling this access must be
	done with caution and an understanding of the implications. For more information
	on enabling Windows access and using VirtualBox from the Windows Subsystem for
	Linux, please refer to the Vagrant documentation:

  1. After viewing the link above I ran the following commands
    a. export VAGRANT_WSL_ENABLE_WINDOWS_ACCESS="1"
    b. export PATH="$PATH:/mnt/c/Program Files/Oracle/VirtualBox"
  2. trellis up - again
	There are errors in the configuration of this machine. Please fix
	the following errors and try again:

  1. Cannot make trellis work on Win10 + WSL2 - vagrant up run to an error : `playbook` does not exist on the guest
    I read that this issue was supposed to be fixed in the newer version of Vagrant but I am still having the issue. Do I need to downgrade Vagrant in order for this to work?

If you need additional information just let me know.
Thanks in advance

Does this apply or make sense?
