Try typing the device name without any path in the file requester.
That should make exec.library/OpenDevice() handle it properly by first searching the list of already loaded devices.
Just remember that this list is case sensitive.

If this doesn't help, then have a look at Miami's / Genesis' config file to see if the path really is removed.

Good luck and merry christmas.

You've probably configured Genesis to use BootP to figure out a dynamic IP address for you.
The most commonly used protocol for that purpose is atm DHCP (dynamic host configuring protocol), which is supposed to be backward compatible with BootP iirc.
The only problem is that it doesn't seem to work with Genesis.

I use static IP addresses in a local network and have a pc running Linux as a firewall with IP Masquerade.
