Nokia 770: Send to device error

Hi,

I saw that Calibre recently began supporting the Nokia 770, so I dug it out -- it's my first chance to play with "Send to Device"!

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. When I plug in my 770, I get two disks exported -- the main system drive, and the MicroSD card. Calibre recognizes the 770, and pops up a little notification.

The disks are unlabeled, so they show up as disk and disk-1 in the /media folder. And they alternate names randomly, depending on which one is recognized first, I imagine.

How can I teach Calibre which one to use? Or do I need to prep the device somehow? I get the error message listed below if I select "Use Main Memory" and I get a message that there are no cards installed if I select either Storage Card A or B.

I can't find anything in Preferences, Send To Device, or the Welcome Wizard. I don't have a folder named "My Ebooks" on disk-1 but I do have a folder named "Books" on disk, which is where I prefer to place them. As disk-1 is the system disk, I don't think it's wise to dump my books at the root of it.

Here's the error message:

Code:
(13, 'Permission denied')

Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks!
