My Silverlining-formatted drive at work has an icon representing the AT&T Death Star, installed using just this method. My drive at home has a Calvin icon. You could also wait for System 7.0. In the "Get Info" window, you can replace the icon with one of your choosing. The second partition on my drive at home has a Hobbes icon installed in just this manner. -- Ralph Brandi ralph@mtunq.att.com att!mtunq!ralph R.I.P. Radio Canada International 1942-1991
