The question was: are thes icon files, residing on a ISO CD filesystem,
going
to work as they would on AFFS? 

I've the icon files Franky used for 2.0, and I don't see a need for others.

KISS (keep it simple, stupid). We're going to use the default parameters,
which is root=/dev/ram load_ramdisk=1 (and video=keep if that helps
for Amiga). People in need of specific settings are politely asked to 
consult the relevant documentation.
