Well... the kernel I'm running now compiles in only 2.6G of disk space. The fun is "what else is needed" - if you use git, that's another 1.2G for the current git tree. You'll need a toolchain including compilers etc. You'll need a userspace. If you already have one and are just redoing the kernel, then it's not as big a problem. > My experience: I have compiled 3.10 kernel on VMware Workstation which had > taken 40 to 60 GB of Hard Disk, That's because you had to install a userspace in the virtual machine. Exactly how much that takes will depend on the distro you select and install options (full/minimal/devel-tools/funkychicken/poweruser/etc)
