I doubt that you have a beta version of system 7 but never fear...

In finder 7, you can copy an icon or picture and paste it into the Get Info
box of the hard disk. This just "covers" the old icon and doesn't replace
it much like Facade does. To get back the old icon, you just clear the 
replacement icon in the Get Info box.
