"...on Windows" docs wants udev rules

[CarlFK]

last step of this section:

https://github.com/timvideos/litex-buildenv/wiki/Bash-On-Windows#install-litex

juser@DESKTOP-KOJ4LVF:~/lhub/litex-buildenv$ source ./scripts/enter-env.sh
Please install the HDMI2USB udev rules.
These are installed by scripts/download-env-root.sh

Does udev make sense on windows?

[mithro]

udev doesn't make sense on Windows.

[CarlFK]

this needs to ignore windows:

Later today I'll try to figure out how to see what OS we are running under

@cr1901 - Any idea here?

William@William-THINK MINGW64 ~
$ uname -a
MINGW64_NT-6.1-7601 William-THINK 3.0.7-338.x86_64 2019-05-24 10:50 UTC x86_64 Msys

Prob best to check the uname string for a match for NT or something for now? Idk what the conda bash returns for uname on Windows...

@CarlFK Is that WSL? Note I have absolutely no experience with WSL :(.

[CarlFK]

Yes, WSL.

no sad faces, most of my experience with WSL has been following these instructions, so we are in the same rocky boat.
