Description

Completed the installer, /keybase exists but there is nothing in there. I can see both devices, folders are showing in OSX:

simon@vded-sg-001:/keybase$ keybase device list
Name           Type         ID
==========     ==========   ==========

Research direction

Start by reproducing the missing folders on the Ubuntu 14.04 server after completing the installer, then compare the result with the working OSX device. Inspect the keybase device list output and the supplied log ID 3fc737e3afe58859adaac11 to identify why /keybase is empty; done means the expected folders appear on the server.
