Microsoft Store offered Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, so that's what got installed (on WSL1). Following Setup works until there's an error with mysql-server. Doing sudo apt install mysql-server produces in /var/log/mysql/error.log:

[ERROR] [MY-012585] [InnoDB] Linux Native AIO interface is not supported on this platform. Please check your OS documentation and install appropriate binary of InnoDB.

Apparently it's not possible with WSL 1. The May 2020 Update upgrades to WSL 2.
