The following remastered Ubuntu distributions have been available for the youBot:
- Version 0.3.0: Ubuntu 10.04 with ROS Electric
- Version 0.4.0: Ubuntu 12.04 with ROS Fuerte
- Version 1.0.0: Ubuntu 12.04 with ROS Hydro
Version 1.0.0 is shipped since February 2015 with every new youBot.
All versions include drivers and applications for controlling the KUKA youBot. Beside these, they are equivalent to the standard distributions and can be used as bootable live media or for installation. They can be used on almost any PC and are not limited to the onboard PC of the KUKA youBot.
Creating the Live media
Download the iso images from our website [1]. Afterwards you need to create a bootable usb stick, on Ubuntu this can be done e.g. with the program Startup Disc Creator.
Installing the Ubuntu operating system from the youBot Live-USB
NOTE: If you do not install it on a fresh youBot, but used the PC already before, make sure to do a backup of your hard disk if it still contains data important for you.
Depending on the hardware you use you may need to enable booting from USB or press some key to enter the boot menu. On the youBot's PC this is enabled by default.
In the boot menu you have to select USB as a booting device and install operating system. The installation steps are the standard installation routine of Ubuntu as described in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall
NOTE: There is just one exception compared to the standard installation. If the “Who are you?” window appears, you have to set a name, though this will have no effect to your system. After the installation there will always be the user "youbot" with password "youbot". You can only change the name of your PC.
