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.

Thanks PKFFW!!!!

I expanded the WinXP instructions in the WIKI hoping to make it more clear what WinXP users needed to do to get SSH and WinSCP to work for transferring books to OI. Maybe you could add a little Win7 addendum to that explanation, or make your own separate Win7 entry? I am guessing that there will be more and more people needing help like that now that Win7 is fully released.

Thanks again for your report on getting all this to work on Win7.
