What is to roll up in the phasrse "roll up a distribution"?
"To be fair, Dell has offered support of a kind on SONiC for two years now has more recently rolled up a distribution for selected switches in it own portfolio of hardware. But that is not the same thing as creating the Red Hat of NOSes."
from:
 
In ordinary non-computer-ese English it would mean something like:

"Combined a bunch of stuff into a single package and made it available".

But words ultimately mean what the writer intends them to mean, so you'd have to ask the writer to confirm. He may have his own lexicon...known only to him.
