Hi
what is recommendation of linux for using ROS. I try Ubuntu 14.04 but, when I install ros-indigo-base only 300Mb left for additional packages.
Have someone try use ros with anetthor distribution smaller then 800MB(as buntu)
thaks
It’s not clear to me what you mean by “ROS”. But it sounds like you just want a small Linux image. There are many ways to achieve this. Can you possibly form your question better ?
and ROS and "small" doesn't fit..
There's a lot of packages in ROS...
Hi, by ROS mean Robot Operation system (www.ROS.org), it can run on different distributions of linux. I want to ask if someone have good results, with some combination small linux and ROS.

ROS, is in the process of being integrated into debian:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianScience/Robotics/ROS/Packages
I've backported most of the packages from unstable into our default
jessie repo..
Grab a jessie image from here:
http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#Debian_Image_Testing_Snapshots
and give it a goo...
Regards,
I know thats not possible to install all packages. Bare-bone (minimal) ROS + my extra package what I need (mavros), is still to big for BBB Flash, so I try to find solution. First thing what appeared on my mind was use smaller distro of linux.

Ok, in that case I think it could be a possibility. In fact I know it is possible. Granted, I’m unaware of an existing image, or project. Going from what Robert is saying however, it seems that one would have to craft their own project.
Oh, my comment was more about ROS in general, it's a big library and
tries to do many things..
Regards,
Ok, so It seem I misunderstood what was being said. Using the existing
project, I do not know what all is possible. BUt I do know one could start
from scratch, or using parts of that existing project as a starting point
to craft their own "minimal" system.
Thanks for point me to right way, downloading Jessie now

I'd recommend just using a uSD card for more space. 8G and 16G class
10 (or faster) uSD cards are readily available and inexpensive. You
will spend far more time and effort trying to squeeze everything into
the 4G eMMC (at least when developing...once you figure out exactly
what you need the 4G eMMC might be fine).
In addition to Robert's stock Debian images, over at the Machinekit
we're also working with ROS, trying to get it integrated to our
hard-real-time motion control foundation. We're targeting the
BeagleBone and some SoC+FPGA platforms (both Altera and Xilinx), and
our base system is going to be built on top of RCN's Debian images
with ROS either installed from the Debian package stream or built from
source.
