hello all,

first the basic :
calibre 0.6.24
OS : linux mandriva 2010
device (not recognised) hp hx2752 with wince 2003

I have created a html ebook with images. when I add it in calibre, it seems to come without the images

I have a index.html and all images are in the same directory that the index file

I tried previously to have the files in a sub-dir, but it did not work as well

I can open the ebook in a browser and I get it complete, with images, but if I add it to calibre then convert it to any format, the images are lost (represented by an empty square)

my prefert format is mobi but I tried epub, pdf.... none came with the images

I created a html file with the table of content as in the FAQ, but I get the dame, with a TOC in front

I converted all the files to a zip file that I draged into calibre the try to convert it but I get an error message during conversion

this is the result from ebook-convert on the console
ebook-convert electronique.zip electronique.mobi
