I'm using shutils for the first time, and I've un into a problem.
The docs for copytree are pretty sparse and don't mention any problem situations
Under WinXP, I'm trying to copy a directory tree to a USB device using
copytree, but copytree doesn't like a drive letter as a destination.
copytree('C:\\testdir', 'g:\\')
OsError: Permission denied was displayed
However, when I changed the call to copytree('C:\\testdir', 'g:\\junk')
copytree worked.
Why is the root directory '\\' not a valid destination?
