The problem being, Genesis itself is being b*tchy at me and not
letting me get online (if I try to 'connect' in Genesis, it complains
about not being able to put the device offline, which makes no sense
since I'm trying to get online, not offline).
So since my current way of getting online is via an existing AmiTCP
demo installation, I figured I could just replace the 'run
AmiTCP:AmiTCP' in the startup-sequence by loading the kernel provided
by Genesis. That way I wouldn't have to deal with Genesis'
difficulties.

This one's check. I've never had anything in this field.

Okay. I didn't have an existing file designated, but that's fixed now,
I have it pointing to an existing file now. However, the problem still
persists. :( No matter how much I click on 'connect', all I get is:
err offline: could not put DEVS:Networks/ariadne.device Unit 0 offline
I've exhausted my bag of tricks. If no one can help me, I'll probably
be stuck with the AmiTCP demo version for the rest of my life... :b
