Two minor things that should be pretty easy to figure out but here's a general run down.

1: Up the top of the XP mode window are some drop down boxes. One of them is "USB". You must click this drop down box and attach the USB device(the ereader in this case) each time you plug it in before XP mode will recognise that it is there.
2: Right clicking on the linux.inf file and choosing install doesn't seem to work. Instead, after "attaching" the ereader(by the drop down box at the top of the window) for the first time, the windows pop up asking for the drivers will appear and you go through the usual process of telling it where the file is and installing it.

Other than that it is all the same. Of course you need the hardware and a version of Windows 7 that both support virtualistaion.
