 ===== Linux Build System =====
-Building AstLinux requires using some version of Debian/Ubuntu or RHEL/CentOS Linux. It is recommended using a version of these distros in a Virtual Machine (VM). Either a 32-bit or 64-bit build system will work, though in this day and age a 64-bit build system is suggested.
+Building AstLinux requires using some version of Debian/Ubuntu or RHEL/CentOS Linux. It is recommended using a version of these distros in a Virtual Machine (VM). A 64-bit, x86_64 build system is required.
 Using a Virtual Machine is common practice, typical recommended configuration:
-  * 40 GB Storage
+  * 64 GB Storage
-  * 1 GB RAM
+  * 2 GB RAM
   * 1-2 CPU Cores
 Linux Build Systems known to work:
-  * CentOS 6 - 32-bit / 64-bit
+  * CentOS 7 - x86_64 - //(used for official releases)//
-  * CentOS 7 - 64-bit - //(used for official releases)//
+  * Debian 9 - x86_64
-  * Debian 7 - 32-bit
+  * Debian 10 - x86_64
-  * Debian 8 - 64-bit
+  * Ubuntu 14.04 - x86_64
-  * Debian 9 - 64-bit
+  * Ubuntu 16.04 - x86_64
-  * Ubuntu 14.04 - 64-bit
-  * Ubuntu 16.04 - 64-bit
 !!Tip ->!! Use a somewhat older LTS (Long Term Support) Linux distro in a VM, that will be the most compatible with our version of Buildroot.
