Run Linux on GMail!
From the website:
* Make sure you have Python 2.3 installed. Most Linux distributions will have their own package for this (you'll also need the appropriate python2.3-dev packages).
* Install version 2.x of FUSE. Some Linux distributions (such as Debian) come with a package. If your distro doesn't, you can find the source at FUSE's SourceForge download page. Depending on your platform you may have to copy fusermount to /usr/bin for correct operation.
* Download the Python FUSE bindings. These are also available from FUSE's CVS repositorye. Untar fuse-python.tar.gz and follow the instructions in fuse-python/INSTALL.
*
Grab the CVS version of libgmail by following the instructions here. After checking out the file, copy libgmail.py and constants.py to somewhere Python can find them (/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/ works for Debian, others may vary).
*
Download gmailfs-0.4.tar.gz. After untarring, copy gmailfs.py to somewhere easily accessible (for example, /usr/local/bin/gmailfs.py). Copy mount.gmailfs to the /sbin directory.
