           Summary: Access error when trying to make backup from partition
                     (to file) to any folder of another partition.
    Classification: Applications
           Product: partitionmanager

          Platform: openSUSE
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

          Priority: NOR

SUMMARY
I have a partition drive ("BACKUP") that is not mounted at boot time. When I
want to access it, Dolphin asks for the superuser password and there is no
problem accessing it or creating folders or files. However, when I try to make
a copy ("Partition, Backup") of a partition from another disk to this "Backup"
partition (regardless of whether I have previously mounted the "Backup"
partition with Dolphin or not), "partitionmanager" displays a window with the
error message "The specified folder does not exist or could not be read", and I
cannot make the copy. The same procedure, with other partitioners like "Disks"
(Gdisks) can access to write to the "BACKUP" partition to write the copy file
without problems.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a partition from "A" disk
2. "Partition, Backup"
3. In "Save file" window, select "BACKUP" partition in "B" disk (owned by root)

OBSERVED RESULT
"partitionmanager" displays a window with the error message "The specified
folder does not exist or could not be read".

EXPECTED RESULT
Two options:
- If "BACKUP" partition not mounted, ask for root password)
- If "BACKUP" partition is mounted (from Dolphin) simply leave user select
"BACKUP" partition and a folder.
