    So I finally got my Udoo to boot properly thanks to the troubleshooting guide. :)
    However it seems many useful modules are missing from the Linaro Ubuntu. e.g. Tun.ko module.

    How might one compile modules on the board? Any tutorials? Thanks.

    the issue is really that the default image has a very stripped down setup with almost no Repo's
    Check out this thread to get a package manager and to enable the needed repo's to install most of the basics

    Keep in mind much is still being developed, but this will hopefully get you where you need to be for starters.

    Hi,

    if you want compile modules you have to download kernel sources from section download and then:

    # cd /inside/kernel/sources/directory
    # make ARCH=arm menuconfig
    Select your modules
    # make ARCH=arm modules
    #make ARCH=arm modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/mount/point/of/udooSdcard

    Would it be possible to add some details what you are doing here?
    Does this procedure happens on the UDOO or on a different ubuntu system?
    which partition of the SDcard needs to be mounted?

    Thx

    Anyone found a solution for this?
    I have posted my results in this thread viewtopic.php?f=16&t=430 which is geared towards resolving the tun/tap module issue.
