Double icons on my OS9 desktop!

[David Crandon]

Duh! Ok, I've just slapped myself! The second set of icons on my 
desktop are from my backup hard drive which is a duplicate of my main 
drive using Carbon Copy Cloner.

However, I'm not sure I remember seeing the second set of icons in the 
past. Also, they only appear when booting from OS9, not OSX. And both 
sets will show regardless of which hard drive I've actually booted from.

Shouldn't only the desktop icons from the booted drive be showing on 
the desktop, even though the other hard drive is mounted?

Thanks again,

David Crandon
