   > Testing today showed that the WSL emulation is incomplete. Searching 
showed that the problem is known: 
[microsoft/WSL#10311](https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/10311) (WSL 
doesn't automatically mount drive letters added by subst command)). You can't 
execute wsl commands on drives bound using `subst` and for me it also failed 
for network drives.
   
   The fail comes from the netbeans `pty` tool. The `pty` tool is invoked with 
the target directory, but "special" drives are not mapped. My tests indicate, 
that wsl:
   
   - supports regular drives
   - supports drives mapped using virtiofs
   - does not support mapped network drives
   - does not support drives mapped by `subst`
