Description Paco Pons 2017-11-09 16:49:01 UTC 
Tengo varios discos duros, en uno tengo instalado Ubuntu 16.04, en otro tengo las fotos. He instalado DigiKam 5.5. Cuando entro en Preferencias y quiero cambiar el directorio de la base da datos, sólo me muestra "Imágenes" del directorio donde tengo instalado Ubuntu, no puedo buscar el directorio del otro disco duro donde tengo las fotos. Cómo tengo que hacerlo?

Translation in English :

I have hard drives, in one I have installed Ubuntu 16.04, in another I have the photos. Il installed DigiKam 5.5. When I enter Preferences and I want to change the base directory of données, I say "Images" of the directory where I have installed Ubuntu, I can search for the directory of the other hard disk where I have the photos. How do I have to do it?

Hi Paco,

Go to digiKam Setup/Collection page and add one collection pointing to each drive to use. Each collection will appear in Album tab from left sidebar. Drive must be mounted prealably of file system. If drive are removable (as USB), as "removable" collection to the list.

It's very simple in fact.
