mklink /J to SDcard shows Input/Output Error in WSL

[HuJK]

Similar with #291 , but I use Windows 10 1909 build:18363.657

Responses from another issue shows it has been fixed by MS, but I already installed latest update.

Any ideas?

My D drive is a SDcard, is that related to this issue?

I wasn't able to reproduce here, but "Input/output error" is generally not good.

My run is on 19569.

Can you confirm that a simple junction like my run works for you or not? If it does, this will come down to figuring what's unique about your "chocolatey" target directory. Those permission denied might be #2779. The Input/output error is novel.

I test it with folling script, and I update my windows again. Now it is Windows 10 1909 build 18363.693

C:
mkdir C:\Users\HuJK\testc
cd C:\Users\HuJK\testc
mkdir fc
mklink jc C:\Users\HuJK\testc\fc
mklink jd D:\Users\HuJK\testd\fd


D:
mkdir D:\Users\HuJK\testd
cd D:\Users\HuJK\testd
mkdir fd
mklink jc C:\Users\HuJK\testc\fc
mklink jd D:\Users\HuJK\testd\fd
wsl ls -al /mnt/c/Users/HuJK/testc
wsl ls -al /mnt/d/Users/HuJK/testd

And here is the result:

Any junction link to d will cause Input/Output Error in wsl.
The only difference between C and D is D is removable. Will it cause problem?

It might. Ref #2788, which is very different but might have a similar cause (something something GUID something). If you've got a USB stick (contrast SDCard) it might be worth trying to see if the problem is unique to using an SD interface. Thanks for the submission and the repro.

I googled "show guid of a disk in windows", I am not sure whether your GUID mean this?
