Compiling linux-lqx, run out of tmpfs space [SOLVED]

I've tried to compile both linux-lqx kernel and linux-ck kernel via clyde via AUR. I'm guessing about 75% of the way through compilation in both cases I'm running out of disk space in /tmp which is tmpfs. It has 1.5 gigs allocated to it and before compilation begins maybe 15% of that is eaten up by other processes. I've compiled kernels via the AUR before without any issue. Not sure what the problem. The error message reads "No space left on device" and 'df -h' confirms it.

try

pacman -Sb --tmp ~/tmp linux-lqx

<- scratch pacman and use yaourt

just see that "~/tmp" exist :-)

edit: pacman/yaourt jeez....

Move BuildDir (or TempDir or whatever it is called) to another location, not /tmp - somewhere with plenty space.

I thought I might find this set either in PKGBUILD or in linux-lqx.install files, but I did not. Where can I re-set this variable?

Edit: Nevermind, I think the above posts by Itman covers this. Thanks guys!

If you have enough space, Just adjust your fstab like this

tmpfs                   /tmp            tmpfs   nodev,nosuid,size=3G    0       0

Instead of using the commandline '--tmp' option, you can set this in yaourt's config - /etc/yaourtrc. The option is called TMPDIR and defaults to /tmp.
