      It's possible to connect the Raspberry Pi with Recalbox as a direct on PC with a crossover or normal ethernet cable?

      This would solve the slowness to copy large files by wifi, like PSX ISO's for exemple.

      This video shows how do on Raspbian, but I have problems with sudo commands on Recalbox.

      Appreciate a little help.

        A crossover over cable would't help, the pi ethernet is slow. If you want to manage your roms transfer an other way, use a usb key 🙂

          Thank's the help @subs. With a usb key option, I can only do from the command line?

                Thank you @Nachtgarm, I used this option before, but so I have to keep the USB stick in Raspberry Pi all the time, and my SD cards have more space then my USB sticks. ^^'

                I look for a way to copy to the SD card more faster. I think it'll just be able to do this using the SD card on linux.

                  @PumpKHeaD Is it really that slow? I mean when I copy PSX Games via WiFi to my PI I get about 2-4 MB/s, which is a OK Speed for a little Computer like this 😉

                    Yes, really slow, 54kb/s. impossible copy a game of 40MB, imagine with 700mb. I begin to think that my wifi adapter is not good 😕 ... Use pi2 yet

                      @PumpKHeaD That is insanely slow... What RPi do you have? I never drop down to less than 2 MB/s on my Pi2 (with WiFi Dongle) and my RPi3

                        Use a RPi2 with generic WiFi dongle. Something is very wrong here, I need to fix this 😐 So I asked how to connect the RPI directly on pc...

                          @PumpKHeaD Why don't you connect your Pi to your Router and try it via cabled Network instead of having to buy a Crossover Cable and dealing with the hassle of confguring your PC and you PI to static IP adresses, etc?

                            Only because my router is far from my desktop and placed in a high place. But I will find a way to fix this. And is not the distance the problem with wifi, because I use on the pc, smartphones...

                            Thank's try help me with this 🙂

                              I could solve part of my problems with this Wiki here:

                              If someone has the same problem [with a tip about 4.1] 😉
