+# Introduction
 
-The WSL 2 Linux kernel repo provides the additional infrastructure necessary
-to build and release the kernel component of WSL 2. It was never designed to
-replace the current existing community and feedback channels for WSL,
-especially through: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL. This is why we are not
-accepting issues or pull requests through this repository.
+The [WSL2-Linux-Kernel][wsl2-kernel] repo contains the kernel source code and
+configuration files for the [WSL2][about-wsl2] kernel.
 
-If you have an issue relating to WSL, or the WSL 2 Linux kernel configuration,
-please report it at the WSL GitHub: would like contribute to or report an issue
-on the WSL2 kernel, please do so at the WSL GitHub:
+# Reporting Bugs
 
-https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/new/choose
+If you discover an issue relating to WSL or the WSL2 kernel, please report it on

+# Build Instructions
+
+Instructions for building an x86_64 WSL2 kernel with an Ubuntu distribution are
+as follows:
+
+1. Install the build dependencies:  
+   `$ sudo apt install build-essential flex bison libssl-dev libelf-dev`
+2. Build the kernel using the WSL2 kernel configuration:
