Hi,

Could you kindly let me know, will it work if I install ROS 2 on Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble), while following link below?

This document indicates that ROS 2 Humble binary packages supports only Ubuntu 22.

So I think you cannot install ROS 2 Humble binary packages.
If you would like to use ROS 2 Humble with Ubuntu 24, you should try to install from source code.
But Ubuntu 24 is not supported by Isaac Sim 4.1.0.
Please refer the latest documentation.

Another approach is to use docker.
I’m using official docker image with Ubuntu 24.
