RE: required disk space?

[lrtaylor]

It builds three copies of the compiler, so it can take up a lot of
space.  From the installation docs:

If you are short on disk space you might consider make bootstrap-lean
instead. This is identical to make bootstrap except that object files
from the stage1 and stage2 of the 3-stage bootstrap of the compiler are
deleted as soon as they are no longer needed. 

Try "make bootstrap-lean".

Thanks,
Lyle

I'm trying to make bootstrap4-lean with over a gig free, and I am
getting errors due to no disk space

low and behold, it's true, the gcc make has used up over a gig

is this normal?

how much disk space does it usually take up, so that I can see if the
note from the install instructions will be of any use

thanks for the reply
I ended up removing what I could, and getting enough free space for it

but yeah, I was already doing a make bootstrap4-lean, and before that
I had tried a make bootstrap-lean, both stopped due to low disk space

but no worries now, I've gotten GCC completly compiled, thanks anyways!
