is no explicit assignment in ICONS.INF.

By using the 'Mount Devices' option in the 'Extra' menu, Thing
installs icons for all available drives between A: and Z:. The icon
type can be changed by adding "IDRV" entries to the file ICONS.INF.
In the Thing icon manager select the 'Device' option for drive icons.
On the desktop a double-click (or single-click then 'File' >
'Open') on a drive icon opens a new directory window displaying the
contents of the selected drive. This can also be done by pressing
Alternate together with the key corresponding to the drive letter.
If icons for any installed GEMDOS drives are not currently displayed
on the desktop, select 'Extra' > 'Mount Devices' and they will be
installed automatically.
