assuming you have connected the retrostone to your router with the ethernet cable and not your PC, try rebooting with the cable plugged in
if you're command line savvy, plug in a keyboard, exit emulationstation to the terminal and run
sudo service networking restart
this should give the DHCP service a kick and assign eth0 an address
Check your address with
hostname -i

I plugged the cable into the router and was able to identify the Ip in the restrostone. And I can check the name of the RetrOrangePi in the router manager. But I still can not access Retrostone. I am in despair...

I think that ROOT user is the root of the device, and the PI user is just the user account with only access to the ROM storage.

The problem was caused by the firewall. Thank you for your answers!!
