You now are head of a division of DARPA to make a robot that runs on linux.
Which distro do you use and why?
i make my own because a robot doesn't need a crack team of fucking retarded hobbyists to say that it needs gnome with a different theme by default or that programs x and y can't be brought up to date because they need a new version of a library and program z depends on the older version
Replicate Mechazawa's OS

Why do something from scratch if you can use code that's widely tested and available, Honda engineers use Ubuntu to program asimo, clearly you are not the sharpest tool in the shed
>>54645564
Steam OS
>>54645564
some distro with linux-rt kernel
probably gentoo, not kidding
>>54645564
Arch or Gentoo of course
any other answer is retarded

Except Steam OS

Can you get it with hardened patches too?
Steam OS is the obvious answer

Why would I build a robot on top of Linux? That's retarded.
Anyway, if I really wanted a robot that isn't able to do real-time computation, I would go with ucLinux
>>54645564
Just use debian or centos with a custom scheduler

Is cromartie the best, or is it the best?

Whatever you use, you will be making the drivers for this new, untested hardware.
Unless, you are not using new hardware and relying in commercially available hardware, which doesn't mean is widely used but at least industrially available.
For the programmers on /g/, you should try writing a driver sometime. Not that difficult.

Windows 10 with DirectX12 for best results.

That's literally what every non-hobbyist robot is built on.

TempleOS
>>54645564
Either Alpine Linux or TinyCore

Any good resources showing the basics of writing driver sw?

You all are idiots. Why the fuck would you need a distro for linux.
>>54655133
DEUS VULT !
Arch
>>54645564
TempleOS
NetBSD ;^)

Boston dynamics uses QNX. Linux is soft-realtime, it isn't suitable for some sensitive control tasks.
Android, get it? Becus robots.
