Can I change the location of the “Ubuntu One” folder?
The sync folder is automatically at /home/user - but I need to change it, because I have just a small EEE netbook with very limited SSD but with enough place at /media/SDHCard - Can I simply move it? I think, that it is necessary to ad an item in the client.
I understand this was solved years ago. I was here searching for how to do it, and found it much simpler to so here's an update for anyone else needing to move the folder.
1st
In a terminal:
killall -w ubuntuone-
2nd
In a file manager:
drag the original folder to desired location or cut and paste
right click the folder and make a link, then move the link back to Home folder and rename to Ubuntu One
no permissions editing was necessary
