ROS Fuerte on Raspbian

ROS Fuerte Turtlesim running on Raspbian

Last week I was able to install ROS Fuerte on Raspbian on my Raspberry Pi.
As the installation process literally takes hours, I wanted to share an image of my SD card.

The image is a 823MB 7zip archive file, and requires a 4GB SD card to install once extracted.

It comes with ROS Fuerte ROS-Full layer and its dependencies installed, ssh enabled.

 

id: pi
password: raspberry

You will find it here[EDIT]please see http://jeremy-nicola.info/2013/03/17/ros-fuerte-sd-card-image-for-the-raspberry-pi/ [/EDIT]. Please report if you spot any issue.

The next step is to get most of the ROS Desktop-Full stacks installed.

    Very awesome of you to post your full image. Looking forward to your progress on getting ROS installed on the Pi.
    What distro did you start with?
    Have you tried the adafruit occidentalis distro?

      Thank you!
      It's a Raspbian distro, I was on hollydays and I was away from anything that looks like a computer in the last weeks, so I didn't know Adafruit made a distro for the Pi. I'll definitely check that, and why not provide an other ROS-Full underlay SD card image based on it.

      Thank you Dilhan, I hope to soon flood this website with more cool stuff.
      I am currently ( literally, right now ) moving everything to the new Raspbian Image, to have the Turbo mode, USB driver & audio enhancements and all the good things.

      I will add the the rosserial_* stacks in the next release, so I hope you can wait until Tuesday, or Wednesday at worse ;)

    This looks great, thanks for building it! This will probably end up as the fourth OS to be installed on the Raspberry Tank, but I can probably get your OS on there quicker than I can build ROS for the Occidentalis build I have on there at the moment!

    Seems like the link to the ROS image is broken.
