I'd like to have my hard drive have a different icon on the desktop
than the generic SCSI-diamond it has now.  I've been doing it with the
Facade INIT, but I'd like to use fewer INITS (to free up more memory
for System 7's use), and I'd also like to have my hard drive show the
new icon when I mount it on another machine via Personal FileShare.

Is there any way to do this?  I know it's possible to have a different
icon than what I've got now for the desktop and as a mounted volume;
how do I change it?  Is there some resource that I just paste a new
icon into, or so I have to tinker with drivers, or what?
