Never had a problem with fat32 drives
Obviously networked filesystems are asking for trouble, and using NTFS on linux is just silly...


@PeterT, when I try running `calibredb add /tmp/random-file.txt --with-library /tmp/test-library` it creates a library and adds the file.

@OP -- did you get it to work?
