Customize your BootCamp Window
here is what the default BootCamp interface looks like
BORING !! time to spice it up
First, download some cool icons …. (via YellowIcon)
I wanted this to show a cool OSX icon for the Mac Partition and a windows one for the XP Partition.
Can I make custom disk icons for Mac OS 9 and OS X?
Disks (or in the language of Unix, “volumes�) in Mac OS X have a special file called �.VolumeIcon.icns� at the root level of the disk. You can see this in a Terminal window by using the commands:
% cd /Volume/DISKNAME
% ls -la
where DISKNAME is the name of a disk with a custom icon attached.
I read the entire article to understand how to fix these icons. and created a Mac OSX icon but could not create an XP icon for the Bootcamp loader…. As far as my research took me its not currently possible to pass a different icon to BootCamp for Xp without installing and hacking Refkit, which im not quite ready to do
