Removing the OPF from the ZIP allowed it to convert BUT Calibre assembled all the html files in the wrong order. There's 83 chapters, each one a separate file plus a table of contents file and some others that serve other purposes when viewing in a browser.

The file names are all the same, ending in 1 through 91. 'Course not having files 1 through 9 as 01 through 09 causes problems but WTH did Calibre decide to put Chapter 30 at the start of the book then count them down in reverse order to Chapter 1, then the TOC, the front matter, then Chapter 31 up through 83 in correct order?

I've finally got it all in correct order. I put it together in Mobipocket Creator, using its ability to ensure the files will be assembled in the desired order, then dragged that mobi file into Calibre to use it to update the metadata and reconvert to mobi format.

Would be much easier to be able to drag a folder of HTML files and images into Calibre and have a window where the user could drag them into the desired order to ensure it'll be right.
