This is the repository of ROSuntu, a Ubuntu-based distribution for ROS 2. ROSuntu is a distro of Ubuntu, which makes it easy enough for new users to go into it. Still, we gave it the customization for ROS 2 developers, including installing ROS 2 Humble, Gazebo Classic, VSCode, Chrome, Git, and Docker. This repository provides the materials and the guide to creating the ISO for the ROSuntu distro.

The installation of ROSuntu is similar to a regular Ubuntu. Thus, you will have to select your keyboard layout and your timezone, choose between standard and minimal installation and create your user.

Mark the packages that you want to exclude in the standard and the minimal installation. In the case of ROSuntu, everything is left by default.
Select the kernel shown at the end of the installation on the Terminal Page. Then, copy the content of the grub.cfg and loopback.cfg in the boot tag.
Select the compression. For the case of ROSuntu, we have selected xz.
Wait until the ISO is created...
Congrats, you have created the ROSuntu ISO. You can test it now.
