I think you'd have to do a check:

If icon.library = version "anything other than the version you've installed" then run the LoadResident command
Else skip running the command

Or "if version icon.library = version you've installed, skip running the load command"
Else "run the load command"

That's just offhand, obviously.  I'm not near a computer right now.  But it sounds like part of the problem is that it's being loaded twice. :(

Update ram-handler with the one from OS3.9 and you can make a soft link in user startup to for example evnarc:sys/def_RAM.info from RAM:Disk.info, and you are done.

Or you can copy a disk.info file from some other location into RAM:, prior to the LoadWB command. Also you can use the new icon library to automatically load an image (without the soft link), but that's probably just going to confuse things more. ;)

Kolla's answer is the most "technically correct" if you want to do it the way the OS designers intended. ;)

If I was OS designer, I would let ram-handler take care of the icon for ram-disk ;)
