BetterWB Removing NewIcons
I have BetterWB for 3.2 installed on my system, however I want to go back to a simpler icon set such as CloverIcons, I managed to install the icons however I am unable to change the hard disk icons, they are sticking to the NewIcons style. I turned off NewIcons in the Workbench Prefs but it still shows up as an NewIcon drive. Also on a slightly different note, I have noticed that it is not possible to reboot the Amiga from the keyboard, or if it does work it seems to be on and off, is this another bug of 3.2?

Unreliable rebooting would not be related to the OS. Many Amiga models reboot directly via the hardware, and on the others it is only possible to delay the reboot.

I see, I guess maybe it is related to the TF1260 I have installed.

To change HDD icons replace the hidden disk.info file on each drive/parition, you can do this via the shell or using a program like Directory Opus.

Or use a tool like "CopyIcon" to do it via drag&drop. This will keep all properties and only change the icon.

Thanks for the help guys, I tried tools like CopyIcon which did not work and I also changed the disk.info but still it did not do anything. I managed to find a previously backed-up WB install and copied it over and now the icons are how I want them again. Weird issue though.
