I have a problem to install on this Netbook , partinioning fail , the disk is an 8gb mini PCIe , is set as IDE in bios , install cant procced as partitioning fail , any idea how to get this done ?

What are you using to partition the drive? Avoid partitioning it yourself; use InstallAROS, which will do everything automatically.
If you’re using InstallAROS, then the hard drive might be faulty.

I dont partition it manually , installAROS partitioning fails , the disk is ok it has puppy linux installed

Before proceeding with the installation, you ran Wipe Disk; you might want to run it twice, as there may still be a Linux bootloader on the hard drive.

I try it multiple times but the same I also erased the disk with gparted live and tried with the disk as unallocated and as fat32 but the same . there must be some kind of remain of grub bootloader beacause even with erased the disk it tries to boot and get this screen

That’s what I thought; sometimes InstallAROS doesn’t manage to wipe the drive properly. Try using a partition management programme and select the ‘Wipe’ function, see the screenshot. You can do this for just the first few gigabytes, then perhaps wipe the partition again.

This method definitely works, just make sure the hard drive is completely free of partitions at the end!

I used AOMEI Partition assistand I wipped the disk indeed the grubloader reamains erased but the same I don't know something isn't compatible in this little netbook the disk is a mini PCIe perhaps not compatible

Check if you can see the drive in HDToolBox and post a screenshot of that. The drive may not be unit 0.

trying to install in a usb target leads to the same fail , something in netbook is not compatible although it has native graphics and sound , at the moment I installed Aeros which works fine , I'd prefer ofcourse AROS but anyway , I also tried Icaros but the result same

Strange, they say here that the 32-bit version of AROS One installs on the Asus Eee PC 900A

live only , if it was installed that would be the smallest native machine

It also runs reasonably well on the tiny Sony Vaio VGN-P11Z :-) Only VESA graphics, but the Atheros WiFi is supported!

But for your EeePC, I suspect ATA used to work.

AROS One 32-bit also works well on my Acer Aspire One ZG5 and Dell Inspiron Mini 910 netbooks; on the Dell Inspiron Mini 910, only WiFi is not supported

ok one of the smallest then
