How to factory reset the CORE2-ROS?

Hi, I’m new to the forum and am trying to find a way to reset the device to it’s factory settings? I’ve flashed the bootloader and run “apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade -y” twice, but that won’t get me back to the factory settings. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi trav.yo.

The only way to reset device to factory settings is to flash SD card one more time. You can find the manual here.

Hubert.

Hello Alex,

To reset ROSbot to factory settings, there are two things to do:

  1. Reinstall system on SBC
  2. Flash firmware on STM32 controller

ROSbot is based on Ubuntu 16.04, but there is no restriction on system which you are using on your computer.

In general, this forum is for asking questions. If you encounter an issue that needs a dedicated assistance, we can set eg. a Skype call.
