Is that even possible? I could have sworn the ability to change the

Supposedly it's possible, but probably not in vMac...

The icon will either be in the System or Finder as a resource, or in the disk's driver. (If it is in the ROM, you could override it by adding a resource to the System file anyway.)

Explore a bit. You may find the answer. :)

Byron,

Thanks for the suggestion. I downloaded ResEdit 2.1.3 and used that on the Desktop file, System, and Finder. I looked through all of the resources I could find, but still didn't locate the disk icon. I'm going to keep looking, though, because I know it's gotta be there somewhere! :)
