32Minimum Free Disk Space
33=======================
34
35To build an image such as ``core-image-sato`` for the ``qemux86-64`` machine,
36you need a system with at least &MIN_DISK_SPACE; Gbytes of free disk space.
37However, much more disk space will be necessary to build more complex images,
38to run multiple builds and to cache build artifacts, improving build efficiency.
39
40If you have a shortage of disk space, see the ":doc:`/dev-manual/disk-space`"
41section of the Development Tasks Manual.
