I wanted to build AOSP 14, so I searched the internet for instructions. I found this guide: https://medium.com/@213maheta/aosp14-download-build-0bcd99a99f84
I had an old 1TB SSD lying around, so I plugged it in and installed Ubuntu. I’m not new to Linux, but I’d say I’m between a noob and a pro. I updated the system, installed the dependencies, and set up the repo. I initialized the repo with the branch android-14.0.0_r33 and started syncing the repository. After leaving it for a few hours, I noticed it was continuously downloading and eventually received a message that the space on my SSD was low. A few minutes later, it was completely full.
I reinstalled Ubuntu and tried again, this time using the command repo sync -c –no-clone-bundle -j16, but it didn’t solve the issue. I’m frustrated because I can’t find anyone else on the internet with the same problem. I’ve looked at hundreds of tutorials, many of which recommend a minimum of 520GB and ideally 1TB of space. What am I doing wrong? Thank you for any answers.
