jmitzimberg :
Looks like I’m a little late to this party. I just hacked my way through installing Dropbox on the Cr-48 and I had a question. Making the user folder executable removes a layer of security in ChromeOS. Is there a way to move the binary somewhere that’s executable so we don’t have to remount?

Well, your root partition is executable but not writable by default. You can remount it read-write and put the dropbox executable there instead, but then you'll have to reinstall it every time you update ChromeOS. I don't think the security issue of having an executable home directory is significant.

Oh, good. Yeah, I should make that bit a little more explicit in my tutorial. I am also working on getting dropbox.py working, will update when that happens.

Solved my problem – i missed the point that dropboxd has to continue running while the https link is hit. Didn’t realize that i could use Alt+Tab to toggle out of shell back to Chrome. I was exiting shell and crosh. Anyway, thanks for this great tutorial.

i’ve tried a couple times pasting the link successfully (dropbox.com shows “localhost” added) but when i get back to shell to start the daemon it reprompts me with a new URL

do i run the sudo cmd again when i reenter shell before starting daemon?? thanks.

The only thing with this is if you exit shell, then drop back into it, it tries to start dropboxd again. might want to put a try/catch in there. also, if you put a check to see if they have that dropbox-dist folder, then try to start it (so it will just ignore it if they don’t have it installed, maybe throw a link to this post in .bashrc), throw me a pull request and i’ll put this in the repo.
