Here is a download guide written based on Red Hat.

The steps are similar for Ubuntu (or other editions) except make sure you use/download the Ubuntu (or other editions) drivers instead of the Red Hat drivers.

These drivers are for using AluBox LAN connected to LAN.
For connecting via USB, no special drivers are needed (use Linux drivers / support for USB harddisks).
For other models AluBox connecting via USB, 1394, eSATA, use Linux drivers / support for USB, 1394, SATA.
