Here are maps in Garmin image file format people have created from OSM data.
With a new Garmin device simply create a folder called "Garmin" on your SD-card and store the .img file in it. Make sure the file is called "gmapsupp.img". For more details on this see OSM_Map_On_Garmin/Mass_Storage_Mode.
Sites are listed by continent, then by country alphabetically, then by suspected usefulness (eg. sites which cover a whole continent and are updated regularly are listed first.)
