Background:
I have an InnerDrive partitioned into two volumes.  I keep the five or six
most commonly used programs on the desktop so I don't have to go digging
for them; all are on the first partition.  At the time this bug occurred,
neither of the drives were "opened" (i.e., the only things on the desktop
were icons for the devices and the programs).

Wha happen:
I was moving things around randomly (boredom, ya know?), and I tried moving
the second partition onto the first.  The Finder responded with a "volumes
are not the same size; the files will be stored in a subdirectory" box,
which I canceled.  After cancelation, the programs I had placed on the
desktop were moved off.

Not only were they placed back into their original folders, but the color
attributes were lost.

This is sorta weird.  Any ideas?
