Sentinel VOXL2 Ubuntu Upgrade

[Adeeb Abbas]

Is it possible to upgrade the preinstalled Ubuntu 18.04 to a more recent version of Ubuntu like Bionic or Jammy?

[tom]

@Adeeb-Abbas No, it is not possible. A future release will support Ubuntu 20 but it won't be released for quite some time

[Adeeb Abbas]

@tom Gotcha, thanks for your response! I am guessing that the ROS 2 support then is only via docker then?

@Adeeb-Abbas We haven't implemented ros2 ourselves yet so I can't give a definitive answer, however it's on our list

Oh interesting. The marketing material repeatedly said "ROS / ROS 2" so I just assumed there's some level of ROS2 support.
