Dropbox with Raspberry Pi #

Act as root, since I wanted to run the script on startup as a service, so I must setup dropbox for ‘root’ user rather than ‘pi’ -

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo -s
root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# cd /root/

Get the script and link #

root@raspberrypi:~# git clone http://github.com/andreafabrizi/Dropbox-Uploader.git
