Accessing OneDrive like a local drive on Linux with onedriver

on
If you’ve ever wished your OneDrive files just appeared in your Linux filesystem, no clunky sync clients, no waiting while 100 GB of data crawl in the background, then meet onedriver . It’s a clever little tool that mounts OneDrive as a native filesystem on Linux, making your cloud files act like local files without actually syncing them all. onedriver mounts your OneDrive account to a directory (for example, ~/OneDrive ) so you can use your files through your file browser or CLI as if they were on your machine.  It does on-demand download : a file is only fetched from OneDrive the moment you try to open it — you don’t have to wait for everything to sync.  Bidirectional behavior: changes on OneDrive show up locally; write operations locally are reflected remotely.

Ubuntu in VMware workstation 17

on
Download the Ubuntu iso here for installation in

VMware workstation 17.0 for a cheap price

If using an earlier version than 22.04 LTS, you'll need to manually update the snap store

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

sudo snap refresh


It is easy to install Ubuntu on VMware workstation 17. I find that on VirtualBox the 'sudo' commands don't work and you may run into the error 'user is not found in the sudoers list'



Simply start VMware workstation machine wizard and use a typical configuration



Browse to the Ubuntu iso file and click next



Here you will create a username and password. You will need this to log in and use Sudo commands in the terminal



Enter a location for Ubuntu virtual machine




I have Ubuntu installed on one of my external drives and have the storage size at 500 gigabytes



If you have a lot of ram you can use 16gb of ram for the VM so you can get the most use of your systems GPU 



Tap on done and start the virtual machine 



It's pretty straightforward. Set it up like any typical os. Install 3rd party drivers if you want
