My library is on an external drive, databook... I connected the databook to the my new netbook with a usb cable. Made sure I had the newest versions of calibre on both machines. (I had spent a few hours updating the library from my old desktop this morning, then go the brainwave to use the more powerful netbook instead). This is the message I get when I try to open my library... Help please!

ERROR: ERROR: Unhandled exception: <b>DatabaseException</b>:attempt to write a readonly database
