I have recently been creating a custom startup screen for use on my SE/30. However, saving it in StartupScreen format and placing it in the system folder ruins it because of the startup icons for all my INITs. All the icons that could be turned off have been, but there are still a few that appear (namely Disinfectant, MODE32, and ATM). I've used ResEdit to edit the BNDL resources in each of the offending INITS in order to delete the icons. It was also necessary to go into the ICON resource for MODE32 and ATM to get the icons deleted. This hasn't caused any strange problems yet (like the desktop icons disappearing), so so far, so good. What I want to know is if this is actually a safe way to go about removing the offending icons. If it is, then how do I get rid of the annoying beeps that occur during startup (I think it's some error beep saying that the INIT cannot find the correct resource). If it isn't safe, does anyone have a better solution? Brad Spachman c/o rgarza@casbah.acns.nwu.edu "I go to pieces so fast, people get hit by the shrapnel"
