I've installed Google Chrome from the PhatdogPM etc etc
I've now posted this in the PhatDog64 630 thread - it's proper place.

You need to specify a user directory like it says.
Either in the exec line of the .desktop file or in a script, put.
Code: Select all
google-chrome --user-data-dir="/mnt/home/chrome/user"
or something similar depending where you'd like the user data stored.
If you look in this thread, I posted a bunch of sample .desktop files.
