It sounds like you're copying ramdisk.icon to the ram disk at startup
time.  You're on the right track but should be doing this...

copy ramdisk.icon to RAM:disk.info

It has to be called disk.info...

OR...  If you're very enthusiatic, you could install Newicons (found
on aminet) which eliminates the need to copy the icon across (OK,
deficons does this particular job) AND gives you a great new icon
system that lets you have icons of any color displayed correctly on WB
and replaces all the default icons with decent looking icons.  It also
recognises many more types of file and supplies default icons for them
also.


Later,

Seany.
