Crossdos icon removal util

[lurkist]

I have successfully installed a Zip drive this morning.
Now I have the CrossDos icon, but also an annoying DF0 one (unusable).  I seem to remember a small util which removes these unwanted icons, but what was it called, and will it work in this case?

Also, (OT) I'm only getting transfer speeds of about 200,000 per second.  Is this about right for a Zip disk?

Also, Is the CrossDos def icon changeable?

I know for normal CrossDOS Floppies you'd put your new default icon as def_PC0.info in env-archive: (and ENV: if you don't want to reboot).

You should be able to do the same for the zip drive, but the name will probably be different.

--edit--
also, if you're using OS3.9 you should be able to hide the DF0 icon in the Workbench prefs.

Yes, but it's hard coded into the filesystem - was it in the L:crossdosfilesystem? Look with a hex editor and find the letters disk.info and change it to for example dusk.info...then you can get a deficon to pop up instead of the hard coded one.

@ Vincent / Zipper

Thanks, both useful comments.  Now the Zip's unused icon is hidden using Workbench prefs (should have thought of that!) and correct Zip deficon comes up by doing the dusk.info trick.

However,

There IS a program which zaps the unused crossdos icon properly and although the above method works for the zip, normal PC0 type disks still have two icons.  I would still like to know the name of this util.

Aminet search:
nloadwb, ghostbuster; the latter feels better known.

Excellent, Ghostbuster is perfect.
