Hi Rahul,
Thanks for the installation guidelines. It was a breeze and I am able to transfer files especially books into my ipad from the desktop. On the ipad i am using a ftp client from easyftppro. The sudo apt-get install filezilla asked me a confirmation question and was hanging with no activity. I had no alternative but to cycle power to the pc,
thanks once again,
regards,
Pavithra Devaraj
