    Unless you have a fast computer & lots of RAM, VMWare Workstation Player and VirtualBox run at a snail's pace. I have a quad core AMD & running an app or Operating System in it is very slow. Basically you are running a computer within your computer. Neither are simple to install either. My experience.

    From what I read on the links I provided, you register your EBT card the same way you would a Credit Card with Walmart. When you arrive to pick up your curbside-delivery, you swipe your EBT card as you would a Credit Card to pay or pay online via that payment method. As you are probably aware, all items are not necessarily permitted via EBT payment.

    I'm going to Walmart, Woodhaven, Michigan later today to pick up Medications. I'll check with the appropriate staff and get back with you.

    If you don't care too much about speed, running the real Android on a virtual machine can be an option. Install an hypervisor (I suggest VirtualBox), then download the ISO file of Android x86, create a VM within VirtualBox and run Android within it.
    In that environment you can run literally any Android program you would normally. Not the best of methods but for some programs it'll work well enough.
    Here is a tutorial with some help for doing the installation, if you decide to go this route.

    Perhaps a new subject on this since I would have many questions.


    The first one is: Do I need to reformat my Win7 NTFS order machine for Virtual Box Android for the

    Linux partition? I recall some of this from years ago. I did try to use Linux for a period of months but
    threw up my hands.

    The Virtual Box has to be available all the time so installing to a small HD or SSD from stuff on my
    shelf would not work well with all the comm necessary for these orders.


    So that's the first question.


    Are there any Linux dedicated Live CDs for this?

    Yes I garnered most of this from my various chats with staffs. I was unable for instance after several tries to simply place a phone call to the customer service desk at the one (of two) in the Fox Valley.


    The wrinkle for using any of these curbside features is the lack of rather than advantage of
    any contact. My regular market called Festival Foods has EBT as does the Woodmans which you may have up in Michigan. It's the lack of being able to complete the transaction with a wireless card reader
    that is the bottleneck. I have madse the request repeatedly at these supermarkets but their helpline
    is mostly for food question.



    Some day, I'll try the main site again and see of my phone number works. It would be nice if
    the workewr who answered reported it as a problem. I don't know if the service is meant for smartphone only.



    So that's why I'd appreciate anythng you find out. I simply have not had an effective way to even
    speak to a warm body at the customer service line at the store.

    You don't even need to use a wireless card reader!

    You login to Walmart on your computer and add your EBT card as you would a credit card, then select food which goes in your cart, select pickup food time and checkout?

    I can do that with my credit or debit cards. The phone contact is optional.

    The pickup times are by day then by hour. If you arrive a few minutes early, you should be good to go!

    Have you tried that?

    I'm sure that the Walmart Associate at the door would be able to assist you when you arrive if need be. Yes? No? Maybe?

    I have made an account with everything on it. I'll see how far I cn get in a checkout but I think the 'same
    mobole access' will happen. Not going to do it immediately.

    Don't see why your Walmart Account would be/perform any different than mine. I order online from them quite often, not food yet though, but I have had several deliveries and pickups. I don't have a cell-phone, used to, don't need one now.

    A Grocery order by you should produce the same screens as I posted earlier.
    I didn't proceed to checkout, however, I believe it should work for you.
