Linux in OneDrive?
Linux in OneDrive?
I watched this video where they talked about how someone installed Linux on their Google drive. Like, installing everything in Google drive, not finding some Google client. Storing the /* in Drive.
I am currently attempting to do this as well, but with Microsoft OneDrive. I'll update you all on my progress!
Interesting endeavor...any practical benefits? I would think that even a slow USB 2.0 drive would provide better performance than a cloud-based file system.

That’s not the point of such experiments.
Haha, oh I know and I'm all for trying things for the fun of it! Just wondered if there was a practical benefit of such a setup.
The practical benefit would be the ability to run in an environment that can’t have any storage, but can have an internet connection. I don’t know what environment that is, but I’m sure someone will have it.
And full disk sync, I suppose
You could pxe boot off a local network server and mount your cloud drive to a fileserver that offers it as nfs to the local network...
But.. why?
I asked the same question about the Google Drive boot, and the answer really boils down to "because I can."
Be carefull that they dont install that crowdstrike software automatically onto your installation
Isn't that a windows problem, as Linux macos are unaffected...
Crowdstrike can be installed in Linux systems, some of them are affected. It doesn't come, nor necessarily auto update, by default.
