Can't seem to figure out how to get it back, I've tried Finder preferences and also made another account to see if the hd is there, no luck. Everything is fine but its really annoying when you don't have the icon on ur desktop.

Assume you have updated to X.5.1? Is selected as show icon in Finder Preferences?

If two yesses, try booting from install disk, verify or repair disk and run Repair Permissions from there. Be patienet will take twenty minutes or so.

I figured it out after 4 hours of fiddling, its so stupid that I can't create a shortcut on the desktop. I did verify and repair but it did not work.
