You should consider using PetaPoco over entity framework. DotNetNuke 7.x has PetaPoco support built in and, IMHO, is a much better solution.

If you are looking to use DotNetNuke for your own purposes, you can use Entity Framework without any special considerations.

If you are looking to deploy a commercial solution on DotNetNuke, you will want to consider the use of the {objectQualifier} and {databaseOwner} configuration options. As supporting those is important for widespread DotNetNuke support and not 100% easy to do with EF.
