But what would be really useful, is to be able to hide "/" on the desktop, but having it still available in the "Computer" finder window. Does anyone know a way to achieve this?

...a solution that works ok is to customize the Toolbar and add the harddisk to it. This way, I'll have easy access to the harddisk while I can still have it hidden on my desktop.

My Finder preferences are set to open new windows to my Home folder. And my default window view is column view. Even after I hid / using this hint, when I open a new Finder window, the root volume does appear because it's in the hierarchy to my home folder. It's only in the icon and list views that the root colume is hidden.
