Calling on #linuxmint#linux people who can help with dual boot situation and OneDrive syncing on Windows. Trying from LM to access my Windows documents folder. I can see the folder, called OneDrive in the terminal, but it's colored in red. Which I assume means I can't get to it. And when I try to cd to that directory, I get an error saying that it doesn't exist. I know that is the path as it appears in Windows. I'm getting closer! Thanks for any suggestions.
@birv2 is it maybe not synced?
I'm not sure how OneDrive works, but it can pull down files on demand. Maybe the path is only mounted when the thing is actually running?
@mforester Thanks for the reply. I don't think I can pull down OneDrive files on demand from LM. Though strangely enough, I can get to Google Sync folders and files. I think there's some funkiness in how OneDrive "manages" the syncing. #onedrive
@birv2 no, I think on Linux you'll need to sync everything first. I don't think there's a Linux client for OneDrive, but I might be wrong. I haven't checked for two or three years.
@birv2 this is the first thing I could find. Sadly only in German, but it has some good info. Maybe if you run it through a translator it has something for you.
