that is what happened already, and I had to abort. I was hoping to find out how much I could conceivably clear up to do this.

Yes you are right, the installer will uncompess all system image contents to disk and you  end up with another 1.7 GB plus \~10%. Therefore i recommend to have at least 4 GB or better 1-2 GB more to be on the safe side.

the image file download is 1.7GB, but the installer might uncompress it to disk which would run you out of space, I'm not sure if it does though.

Hi there, I'm trying to download the latest image from [here](https://calyxos.org/install/devices/bramble/linux/#prepare-your-android-device) but I'm playing a dumb game which is that my computer is down to 3 gb of free hd space.  how much space do I need to install calyxOS?  thank you.
