I just figured out why it does this today. You are supposed to enter the
name of the folder you want the drive to be mounted in under /media, not
the entire directory path itself. For example, if I want my thumb drive
to have the mount point /media/thumb, I enter just "thumb" in the mount
point field.

The error message is telling you that you can't have forward slashes in
the mount name, but I agree, it is very cryptic.
