I've been messing around with my workbench display for a couple of hours I seem to be able to customize my entire display except for the Ram Disk Icon. Any ideas on how to access the .info file for this would be greatly appreciated Many thanks, Paco

paco — I _believe_ that all you have to do is open the ram disk (that is, the very first thing you do to ram:, preferably from your startup-sequence) is "copy df0:ram.icon to ram:Disk.info" any disk.info icon will do. –Ben–

The icon for the RAM: disk is taken from RAM:disk.info at the time that LOADWB is executed. My startup-sequence copies a special ramdisk icon to that filename, executes LOWDWB, waits a few seconds, then deletes the RAM:DISK.info file. You don't need it once workbench is loaded. If you don't have such a file, it uses the (ugly) default disk icon. ../greg
