Trying to do something like run ROS on anything but the Ubuntu distro it was made for.

Flashing an embedded board which requires Ubuntu 20.04 and didn't accept me using 22.04

Some more stuff too but I've forgotten

    oh i see. embedded systems makes sense. i wouldn’t even try to go beyond the factory recommendation for systems like that. maybe for fun. likely there are kernel modifications or modules that are required for those systems.

    Idk it's not just on embedded systems. For example you can't run ros 22.04 on Ubuntu24.04 ** https://docs.ros.org/en/humble/Installation/Ubuntu-Install-Debs.html

    Windows doesn't have these issues. Not that I use Windows for development stuff, but you can usually install any .exe for Windows10 on Windows 11. Even older stuff frequently still works and only sometimes requires running in compatibility mode.
