See the above note from black bird? Are you able to offer any tips or pointers?? He may have been added to lightning telegram chat. Unsure. https://damus.io/note1g2vx93ddkautfc67mv7gaw5ru5x7rv73e0mlmztdy3vn770gwe6szxh32r

Hard to tease that out. Seems like they're trying to run Ubuntu in a VM? Then talking about Start9 which is another distro. I'm happy to help anyone though that's having trouble, if I can
I knew you would. That’s why I tagged you. He said he’s getting no where asking for troubleshooting help. Maybe he’ll chime in and clarify what’s happening
I was under the impression i needed to run Ubuntu to use any of the 3 ubrel, start9 or mynode.
Umbrel, Start9 and RaspiBlitz are each use their own distro. Loading Umbrel on a machine requires that machine to run Debian with Umbrel's spin likewise with RaspiBlitz. Start9 uses EmbassyOS. So you kind of need to run a dedicated machine or in a Virtual Machine on your Windows box with something like VMware or something like that.
To be clear though, you don't have to run any of those "node distros" to run a Lightning node. You can run a Lightning node on any Linux/BSD/Mac/Windows machine
