[Cialug] VSphere Converter Installer for Linux

[Matt]

BTW, I'm not sure if there is an easy way to just "install drivers" on Windows.  Every time I've tried to install any drivers for a device that isn't installed in the system, the installer absolutely refuses to install the drivers.

You will have to figure out how to manually install the inf, sys, etc files somehow.  I've attempted to install inf files extracted from self-extracting installers before, but I don't remember that even working.
