I'll try on another (slightly larger) partition. How much disk space should one have for this? 77 Gigs seems like an awful lot of space for an image. All the source code for a image and yocto tooling in comparison comes to about 60 Gigs or so.
That's odd... The whole process defbitely works if you have much less then 4GB of disk space, and I think our current autobuilder has 30GB. What data was written to where, can you find that out? And which filesystem are you using? I assume you are running either PureOS or Debian Testing on the host system.
You only need ~500MB to store a compressed root filesystem image, then some space to decompress it and the amount of space to build the image and space to store the resulting image. That should never fill up 77GB of space (and I built it with less then 4GB free on my local machine once).
