Risc PC HardWare

I have and still use my Risc PC but would like to use its hardware with a Raspberry Pi.
At present I use the Risc PC to store my data and call it up from my Virtual Acorn on my Windows Laptop via the LAN. I would like to have a faster RISC machine but with all the advantages of the original Risc PC, can this be done?
I did have a Raspberry Pi but was very disappointed with its connectivity with the Virtual Acorn I did not seem able to save the data back to it. Also printing from it with Uniprint did not work. Does any one have any suggestion or help?

Your promlems wth the Raspberry Pi may have been due to power supply issues. Many of the early Power supplies were simply not up to the job. (I use 2Amp minimum – even with nothing else connected but the Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse and Network.)

I used to use a Risc PC, but I found the Raspberry Pi to be so much faster (and uses a much smaller footprint on the desk – or, better still, bolted to the back of the monitor).

I do not see any problems with file sharing between Virtual Acorn and a Risc PC (now that I have replaced the early power supplies).

I can not help with printing, as that is one issue that I am currently not bothered about.

It is also possible that your troubles were due to a badly fitting or incompatible SD card – the new Rasbperry Pi 2 and B+ have a better micro SD card connection.

Pre RC14 and Beta Pi builds of RISC OS up to about six months ago had problems networking. It is now a pretty stable reliable system.
