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
