PownceFS efforts

I'm trying to get Richard Crowley's PownceFS to work.

I am at the point where I'm asking for help now.

I'm using Ubuntu gutsy. I'm sooo close.

I added svn, python-fuse and python-json as it was complaining about those.

Now I got a permission error. I tried using sudo and got it to run on /mnt withtout the permission error. Now that folder is kind of screwed. I've been using Linux for a while, but this mountpoint stuff is throwing me off.

Here's a sample. Any ubuntu folks have comments?


<br /><br />mrjabba@ionia:~/dev/python/powncefs/trunk$ sudo python ./powncefs.py /mnt<br />fuse: mountpoint is not empty<br />fuse: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option<br />Traceback (most recent call last):<br /> File "./powncefs.py", line 324, in <module><br /> main()<br /> File "./powncefs.py", line 321, in main<br /> fs.main()<br /> File "./powncefs.py", line 275, in main<br /> return Fuse.main(self, *a, **kw)<br /> File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/fuse.py", line 713, in main<br /> main(**d)<br />fuse.FuseError: filesystem initialization failed<br />mrjabba@ionia:~/dev/python/powncefs/trunk$<br />

UPDATE:
All fixed thanks to help from others. Get rid of the "/" and let it create regular folders. And make sure it can access fuse and fusermount.
