34Minimum Free Disk Space
35=======================
36
37To build an image such as ``core-image-sato`` for the ``qemux86-64`` machine,
38you need a system with at least &MIN_DISK_SPACE; Gbytes of free disk space.
39However, much more disk space will be necessary to build more complex images,
40to run multiple builds and to cache build artifacts, improving build efficiency.
41
42If you have a shortage of disk space, see the ":doc:`/dev-manual/disk-space`"
43section of the Development Tasks Manual.
