Kobo Connecting Error

I received a "new" Kobo Mini today and have been trying it out. For the second time I've gotten the following error (after a Factory Reset and completely re-setting up the Kobo).

CorruptError: database disk image is malformed

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 87, in run
File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 510, in _books
File "site-packages/calibre/devices/kobo/driver.py", line 1859, in books
File "src/cursor.c", line 236, in resetcursor
CorruptError: CorruptError: database disk image is malformed


Both times this has happened after I sent a book over from Calibre. The first time I was able to send the same one over several times before receiving this error. The second time only once.

Now that I think about it, the book I'm sending over was set up in Sony PRS-300 format the last time before the reset (because it looked it so awful when I tried Kobo format, which I had experimented with) – and then I sent the book in PRS-300 format the first time AFTER the reset. Could that be the issue? (Just occurred to me as I was typing. The book looks much nicer in Sony format.)

Thanks for any pointers.

EDIT: Next time I tried hooking up the Mini, it worked fine – so it looks like it's just going to be touchy – maybe I need to delay disconnecting it?
