I was interested in connecting the [Arduino Yún] to a motor shield or a Zumo. To get some help I contacted Adafruit, Arduino.cc and Pololu, the latter makes the Zumo. Here's a summary of what I learned.
I've been investigating how to connect the [Arduino Yún] to a motor shield or a Zumo robot.
Pololu make a number of Zumo models, some made to work with a small integrated controller,
others with an Arduino.

I contacted [Pololu|https://www.pololu.com/] about connecting a Yún to their mini Zumo robot. The
Zumo acts as an Arduino Shield, plugging right into the top of the Zumo.

experience with the Yun, the Adafruit Motor Shield looks to be compatible and the board power
doesn't seem to be an issue, i.e., the Yun powers the Shield, not the other way around. To quote:
"Motor power is a separate circuit. If you remove the VIN jumper, you can provide motor power
via the motor power terminals on the shield."

So it looks like it'd be possible to either build a Zumo-based robot with the Yún, or one
using the Adafruit Motor Shield V2 as the motor controller.
