Hi Neil
Thanks for your help.
The disk.info file is written to each partition (the datestamp is
displayed as 'today'). The protection bits are set to readable/
writable/deletable. So it would appear the disk.info file is being
written okay to each partition upon snapshotting my hard disk icons.
The partitions are all in the correct positions until I reboot and
they re-arrange themselves 8(
I have ensured their is enough space between each drive icon, as well
as switching to a smaller point font (XHelvetica 11). Still no luck.
