    Hi,

    I am trying to install ROS on UDOO for robotic applications, and I am a bit lost. I'm new using linux and embedded devices, so I don´t know which modules must be installed for doing this, and tutorials are quite difficult to follow for a noob like me. I found this tuto:

    http://wiki.ros.org/hydro/Installation/UDOO

    The problem is that I don't know if the installation must be done from a linux system (not the UDOO), or it is enought with the SD card image. Can someone explain me how to proceed?

    Thanks a lot.

    According to the page you found, you must use a Linux system to build the SD card.

    Hi,
    I did not installed ROS on the Neo (yet) but I did it a couple of times on small single board computers.
    You only need to follow the instructions to install ROS on Ubuntu armhf (http://wiki.ros.org/indigo/Installation/UbuntuARM) directly from your Udoo Neo.
    I advise you to use the Indigo version because it is the recommended version to use with Ubuntu 14.04, it is a long term support (LTS) version and the first one to have an official support for ARM platforms.
    Note that it should work even if you use Hydro on your desktop computer.
    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
