UDOO x86 unboxing and install ubuntu on emmc

Hello everyone, this bolg is about the UDOO x86 unboxing and how to install Ubuntu
After 5 Months delay, I received email from UPS said my UDOO board will be arrived at 4.21, and I was so excited :)
Maybe almost of you will like me, lol
After received the package from UPS, I took some pictures as unboxing
My ordered board is Advanced Plus which has the 32G EMMC storage on board.
And today I will intall the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on the board in EMMC,which the way I usually used.
If I do some wrong, please let me know.

take a look from package to board

I also took a booting video on Youtube, and it’s almost took for 20sec, actually not bad.

Because my SATA Power cable doesn’t match with the board, I will change my cable and reinstall the OS on my SSD.

170423 update: wifi and bluetooth test

I prepared an Intel Dual Band AC 7260NGW wifi card.
Which has both wifi(2.4G & 5G) and bluetooth.
And connected to board with two antennas.
It’s works on two band and bluetooth also.
I don’t know how to show it with you.
I just capture a pic.

170521 update: wifi screw stand

I bought wifi card from other supply, so it come without stand for UDOO board.
I did wifi test when I press the card…
I made a screw stand.

Here are some other idea on the UDOO forum, also the 42 to 60mm M.2 SSD extension bracket.
