Google Drive

What works

Installation, signing in, and sync. Nothing else tested yet.

Had to install ie8 and vcrun2008 using winetricks. It was necessary to set WINEARCH=win32 in order to install ie8. As a previous test result mentioned, you will need to do some DLL overrides. Here is what worked for me: ieframe (native, builtin); winhttp (builtin, native); and wininet (builtin, native). With these modifications, I was able to install the client, run it, and sign in.

Used MSI installer located at https://dl.google.com/drive/gsync_enterprise.msi. Use "wine start gsync_enterprise.msi" to install. Be sure your WINEARCH is set to win32. Note that the installation is silent, i.e. no dialogs will pop up. Once installed, you should find Google Drive in your programs menu.

Install worked fine on the first try. Sync works very quickly in both directions. More testing needed to determine if I can give this a Gold rating. Seems promising!
