I'd like to continue the discussion in this thread towards talking about the desktop image. The real reason for people wanting to have a different icon on their backup drive is, i guess, to not get fooled. Because the backup is a duplicate and looks the
same.
When I troubleshoot a computer problem or wander on my backup for other reasons I find myself often forgetting that I'm actually on a backup
Therefore I like to have a different desktop picture on my backup drive - automatically.
How to do this? I believe the procedure is similar as with the volume icon, but I don't know which files to exclude for this - perhaps some Preference file?
Here's an crazy idea: how about if SuperDuper overlays the backup desktop automatically with a "SuperDuper!" logo/desktop? I could then always change that easily if I'd wanted to continue "living" on that backup volume...
Sincerely, Martin.
