OS 3.9 Icon for DH0: and looking for a good manual

elowan · 21 January 2013, 15:30

hi there,

i wonder, how to archive and hdd-icon with the boing ball for the drive that contains the OS3.9 system-files?

I thought, it was set automatically, if a certain name is given to the hdd... but that seems not to work (at least for me?) I´ve found some screenshots, so you can see, what i like to have / talking about

What manual is prefered and a good foundation to start with? the on CD manual seems... not to be the one.

Put the icon in the root of the drive and name it "Disk.info"

If you insert the OS 3.9 CD you see it as "Emergency Boot" on the desktop. Select the HDD icon you want to change and choose "Icon -> Information" from the menu. Then drag the Emergency Boot icon into the info window, over the old icon and save the change.

Aye, I love 3.9 for that reason. Information is so much more useful instead of 3.1 information.
