Ubuntu – Creating virtual environment on Linux

I have Python 3.8.10 installed on my Ubuntu 20. My Linux is installed on an SSD and I have a HD, where I created a partition. In this HD partition I am trying to create a virtual environment using venv but this error appears Error: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: ‘lib’ -> ‘/media/marcos/VOLUME/Ajuda Mestrado/venv/lib64’

I have checked the python version and tried to create the environment using: python3 -m venv venv, but it didn’t resolve

    It might be Sharing of Resources check the following:

    -Avoid system directories or shared folders (like VirtualBox shared folders) due to restrictions.

    -Create the virtual environment in a non-shared folder with write permissions.
