Google Drive error on Linux Lite - kabonkel - 12-11-2016
Hi, I did something stupid..I was trying to install google drive to get my KeePass database synct with gg drive, and copied and paste some commands in the terminal from internet.
Now my terminal is like busy still. This was yesterday...I don't know whatt to do now. New install? All I have left is an flickering cursor.

I'm not a terminal guru but in the meanwhile you may want to post the commands you entered; as it may enlighten those as to what was initiated..
Or if you have a back up (SystemBack) revert to it vs. a reinstall
Good luck

It was from this site:http://www.howtogeek.com/196635/an-official-google-drive-for-linux-is-here-sort-of-maybe-this-is-all-well-ever-get/
and commands: sudo apt-get install golang git mercurial,
and something like this: cat << ! >> ~/.bashrc
> export GOPATH=\$HOME/gopath
> export PATH=\$GOPATH:\$GOPATH/bin:\$PATH
> !
source ~/.bashrc # To reload the settings and get the newly set ones # Or open a fresh terminal
I think that the last command he's still working on it....
The last command should be this: go get -u github.com/odeke-em/drive/cmd/drive
It's still working the terminal, so not usable..

While there are many positives to building from source, I strongly suggest using the ppa provided here https://github.com/odeke-em/drive/blob/master/platform_packages.md it is updated regularly. It would make installing drive alot easier for you.
Just in case you are wondering, yeah I'm the packager/maintainer for drives ppa. Any problems there in feel free to post an issue on drives github page etc.

Ok shaggytwodope, I followed the link and installed the Linux Lite version. Now what to do?? Where can I find the G Drive?
I first had to do a new installation because I could not use my terminal.
Thanks in advance

. But how do I get it syncted with google drive? I made a local map in it to see if it will sync, which it don't....

Never mind. Bad advice.

I could not delete my post. I checked out the steps I was going to post and decided it was bad advice. It requires a gnome and nautilus install which is not Linux Lite releated.
Hence. Bad advice. Never Mind.
