If I "Get File/Folder Info" on the HD with ResEdit 2.1 it shows that the
"System" Bit is set. Could this be the reason, why I can't change the HDs name
nor the Icon? If so, how can I switch this bit? ResEdit refuses to "Save" the 
changes...
Rebooting from another disk doesn't help either... :-(

Any help would be appreciated...

Oliver.
