PC Setup

To build the Android source files, you will need to use Linux PC. It is suggested that you use the 14.04 LTS 64bit version of Ubuntu which is the tested OS for the Android build.

You should have about 80 Gbytes of free disk space for building images. Go to http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ and download 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop image: http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-14.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso for the installation.

After installing Linux PC, you need to check whether you have all the necessary packages installed for an Android build. Refer to "Setting up your machine" on the Android web site http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html

Or you can install the docker environment provided as bellow to setup the building environment.
