I am currently using a Mac IIfx with System 7.0.  I cannot cut and paste icons
into the get info box for my HD.  File sharing is turned OFF.  I couldn't
rename it until a few days ago when I got a copy of MacSnoop.  I had to update
the SCSI driver before I could even do that (rename volume).

Two other suggestions were to turn off Appletalk, then try to rename it and
reboot from a diskette.  Neither of these helped.  Is there a resource some-
where that can lock the HD icon.  If so, where is this resource kept?  Are
my troubles stemming from not using System tuner 1.1.1?  If you know a way to
fix such a problem in ResEdit, please let me know.  Send any suggestions to the
email address below.  Thanks in advance.
