From Bitpost wiki

Ubuntu on Pi is suggested for ROS.

sudo dpkg -i imager_1.7.2_amd64.deb
sudo rpi-imager&
  • Pick Ubuntu server
OS > Other general-purpose > Ubuntu > Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS 64-bit
  • Burn microSD
  • Plug ethernet and keyboard into the Pi
  • Temporarily plug melange's HDMI into the Pi
  • Plug in the power cable and boot it up
  • Log in as ubuntu/ubuntu and perform initial setup
sudo nano /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml # and add your wifi info
   ethernets:
       ....
   # MDM add 444 wifi
   wifis:
       wlan0:
           dhcp4: true
           optional: true
           access-points:
               party-at-108-bring-2.4-beers:
                   password: "blah"
sudo netplan apply
ip a # make note of wired and wifi MACs, update dnsmasq
sudo service sshd start # um i don't think this is needed, and we are about to reboot...
sudo reboot

You should now be far enough along to ssh to the machine, reclaim the keyboard, and continue with Linux barebones quickstart.
