You need ResEdit.  There are ICN# resources in Facade, and all have names.  If 
you ever name a disk with the same name as one of these ICN#s, it will take on 
that icon (next time it is redrawn).  You can add and subtract your own.

It's a little buggy.  I've never had a crash because of it (that I'm aware of), 
but it can add gibberish to the "Get Info" window of a file on a floppy whose 
icon has been changed.
