Causes
I usually use a virtual machine (like VMware) to installing Ubuntu compile, it works very well
but the limitations are also high, it takes up a lot of space on your hard disk, already up to 15G.! Running efficiency N!* it is not very good, it uses the host part of the assigned hardware to work.
Yes, if native Linux on my computer that would work better, but I'm not ready to get out of Windows, Mac.
this is not well suited to me
An Wired ideas
I have been using the DigitalOcean VPS service, it uses a very fast SSD boot time, disk performance is also very high, its servers in the United States, allows for very fast downloads of various software packages (in China, we are not always quickly access to foreign Web sites resources, sometimes even can not open)
the most important of all, it is not expensive! 20G, 512M minimum memory configuration only requires $ 5 a month, when your build is complete, no longer needs, it has even created a mirror and then remove the host, this eliminates the deduction fees.
so I started trying to use a VPS host compiles, it unfortunately successful, and looking good.
Tries to build firmware for the first time
first try again when I try to compile Avalon firmware
System build
builds for Ubuntu 64-bit mirror

Installing dependent
these probably are used to rely on
sudo apt-get install gcc g++ binutils patch bzip2 flex bison make autoconf gettext texinfo unzip sharutils subversion libncurses5-dev ncurses-term zlib1g-dev subversion git-core gawk asciidoc libz-dev
Look does not need so many rely on
all installed automatically
requires a few minutes of your time
let's check the space

make thread [-j] is set to 2, 4 is crazy.

if already compiled, modified only for feeds.conf, otherwise, it is feeds.CONF.default
vim feeds.conf

Fun part
this simple file services can easily accomplish tasks
