Setting up GmailFS

First, get SuperUser priviledges: 

sudo -s -H

Install the needed packages: 

sudo aptitude install gmailfs

Create the directory for the filesystem: 

mkdir /mnt/g

Adjust the priviledges:

Warning /!\ REMEMBER TO REPLACE "USERNAME" WITH YOUR USERNAME! 

chmod 777 /mnt/g
chown USERNAME:USERNAME /mnt/g

Open /etc/fstab and insert this in the bottom:

Warning /!\ REMEMBER TO REPLACE "USERNAME" AND "PASSWORD" WITH YOUR ACCOUNT INFORMATION! - fsname should be set as something hard to guess! 

/usr/share/pycentral/gmailfs/site-packages/gmailfs.py /mnt/g gmailfs username=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD,fsname=RANDOM

Run mount -a to se if everything is fine: 

mount -a
