This page has instructions for how to convert OSM maps into Garmin format: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin
The easiest option would be download some pre made maps, see this page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/Download
It lists which ones include a Mapsource installer. There’s several that include Edinburgh, most have a much wider area as well.
I recommend this website: http://garmin.na1400.info/routable.php
Just pick the tiles you want, fill in your email address, and a link to a Mapsource installer will be sent to you.
download http://www.openstreetmap.org/index.html?lat=55.95&lon=-3.19&zoom=11 area as an osm file by clicking on Export.
then using mkgmap convert it into an img file and using mapsettoolkit export it to mapsource - not straightforward
I’ve tried to automate the process as much as possible by creating a GUI at http://www.pinns.co.uk/osm/mapsourceuploader.html
Thank you very much!!!
