Hello,

Whenever it open calibre under Linux, I get the following error:

calibre, version 1.25.0
ERROR: Failed to create library: Failed to create calibre library at: u'/media/joaquin/D6402D96402D7E7D/Calibre Library'.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 143, in get_library_path
os.makedirs(library_path)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 150, in makedirs
makedirs(head, mode)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 157, in makedirs
mkdir(name, mode)
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/media/joaquin/D6402D96402D7E7D'

The path to the Library folder is in a windows partition so that might be part of the issue, does anyone know how to fix this error?

Thank you.
