 By default, no. This is because recently we removed the insecure option
 from various kernel config files which prevents you from loading
 modules, once the system has gone multi user.
 Today however, I discovered that this change broke access to GPIO, so I
 ended up compiling a kernel with the insecure option. Will test and
 report back.
