Hello everyone,

For Bootcamp, I have my drive partitioned into 2 partitions, one for mac, one for PC (NTFS formatted.) I was wondering if it's possible to set my drive icon by changing or adding any files while under windows, since I cannot write to NTFS in Mac..

Thanks!

You want to change the icon of the drive that is on your mac desktop?
 
Exactly - I use the method described in the Apple document but it doesn't work when you can't write to the drive.. any workarounds? Anyone know the actual files that dictate the icon for that drive?

Cheers
 
Hello everyone,

Thanks for the help - finally got around to it tonight and it looks great!

Cheers!
