Windows Server 2022, Containers, and Docker

I was rather excited about our Server 2022 upgrade, as it promised to run Docker containers. Well, I finally got around to install the pre-requirements and Docker, but now I'm stuck. Apparently, I'm missing something in the memo. I've tried using Portainer to install, etc. and I'm at a standstill

This is where I'm stuck:

PS C:\Windows\system32> docker pull mariadb Using default tag: latest latest: Pulling from library/mariadb no matching manifest for windows/amd64 10.0.20348 in the manifest list entries

I've searched for hours now, and not found any solutions for JUST Server 2022/Docker. I installed Docker by using: Open an administrator PowerShell Invoke-WebRequest -UseBasicParsing "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/Windows-Containers/Main/helpful_tools/Install-DockerCE/install-docker-ce.ps1" -o install-docker-ce.ps1 .\install-docker-ce.ps1

Any advise?

What I'm guess is happening is that there is no mariadb, nor mysql, package for Windows containers, that it's Linux only . I would have to install the WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) and go through all that. Bummer, as it was hard enough getting permission to install just the Containers feature and Docker.
