ROS distro

Humble

Networking Configuration

Simple Discovery

OS

Built from source or installed?

Installed

Package version

Jazzy turtlebot4_setup.sh

Expected behaviour

Following instructions at https://github.com/turtlebot/turtlebot4_setup/tree/jazzy

turtlebot4_setup.sh should install turtlebot4-setup

Actual behaviour

turtlebot4_setup.sh script failed to complete because script determined kernel upgrade required

Error messages

...
Diagnostics:
  The currently running kernel version is not the expected kernel version 6.8.0-1017-raspi.

Restarting the system to load the new kernel will not be handled automatically, so you should consider rebooting.
...

(Complete console output attached)

and subsequently:

ubuntu@TB5WaLI:~$ turtlebot4-setup
turtlebot4-setup: command not found

To Reproduce

Following instructions in https://github.com/turtlebot/turtlebot4_setup/tree/jazzy

I ran:

wget -qO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/turtlebot/turtlebot4_setup/jazzy/scripts/turtlebot4_setup.sh | bash

and after reboot, found that turtlebot4-setup was not installed.

The console output included:

Diagnostics:
  The currently running kernel version is not the expected kernel version 6.8.0-1017-raspi.

Restarting the system to load the new kernel will not be handled automatically, so you should consider rebooting.

I rebooted and repeated the turtlebot4_setup.sh invocation:

wget -qO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/turtlebot/turtlebot4_setup/jazzy/scripts/turtlebot4_setup.sh | bash

and the setup succeeded (albeit it asked for my password):

Running kernel seems to be up-to-date.

The processor microcode seems to be up-to-date.

No services need to be restarted.

No containers need to be restarted.

No user sessions are running outdated binaries.

No VM guests are running outdated hypervisor (qemu) binaries on this host.

Other notes

Workaround: Add to README.md document a step to update/upgrade step before running the turtlebot4_setup.sh script

Perform update/upgrade and reboot before continuing:  

sudo apt update 
sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo reboot
