Why do you want to change the path for the picons?
If you installed the picons from the feeds on the HDD, the path is set correctly and Enigma will 'find' the picons itself.
Normally the picons are installed in /media/hdd/picon/
if you install the picons 'in the flash' you'll find them in /picon/

There is a search order for the picon, problem is if you installed picons on two different places it will only use the first one it search to.
You cannot split some picons internally and some picons on HDD for example.
in telnet you can run:
find / -type d -name picon
Let it run and if it finds several entries delete the one that you don't need.
NO SUPPORT by PM, it is a forum make your question public so everybody can benefit from the question/answer.

Openpli 7.3 is in Flash and OpenPli 9.0 in the Multiboot. The Picons are in the/hdd/media/hdg_17file/picon folder. That's why I would like to change the path.
And under 9.0 you don't want to work with HDGlass17 Skin. I have to use the base.

The location of picons is not related to the skin in use.
Nothing in OpenPLi installs picons in that location, which suggests you should not ask to change OpenPLi, but whatever non-standard thing the picons installed in that location.
If that is HDGlass, then it double sucks, as it replaces the core enigma code to resolve picons.
So contact the author of that skin, and ask to correct the mistakes made and remove the override code. Or make sure the code can handle standard locations.

I mean it.But Openpli 7.3 worked properly. It's another thing again that doesn't work properly under Openpli 9.0. Should I return to Openpli 7.3 or install another image?

Nothing has changed in OpenPLi with regards to picon resolving between OpenPLi 7 and now.

I understand that there was no change in the Picons aspect. But how can HDGlass 17 Skin (which is one of the best customizable skin) points under 9.0? Surely your creator wants to prick Openpli users. But no problem, I give up on HDGLASS 17.But you can't tell you where to read the picons. You only need to change a path that could be rewritten in settings or some XML.What if I have a flash drive in a folder I would like to place the skin I made?

The complication is that you are using multiboot. In theory, the internal flash is actually the directory on the harddrive.
The skin should really read the picon location from the image. Try uninstalling the picons you installed from the plugin server.
Place the picons on your USB drive in following folder: /media/usb/picon
The picon renderer in the image will find them, I don't know about the skin.

I unpacked the ipk to see what is inside it.
The setup contains code that symlinks the hdglass picon location to a standard location of your choice (which defaults to /media/usb). So perhaps you need to double check your configuration?
I can't see what config, the code is total crap, not going to spend my time on it.
