+ Build Ceph
+============
+
+You can get Ceph software by retrieving Ceph source code and building it yourself.
+To build Ceph, you need to set up a development environment, compile Ceph, 
+and then either install in user space or build packages and install the packages. 
+
+Build Prerequisites
+===================
+
+
+.. tip:: Check this section to see if there are specific prerequisites for your 
+   Linux/Unix distribution.
+
+Before you can build Ceph source code, you need to install several libraries
+and tools::
+
+	./install-deps.sh
+
+.. note:: Some distributions that support Google's memory profiler tool may use
+   a different package name (e.g., ``libgoogle-perftools4``).
+
+Build Ceph
+==========
+
+Ceph is built using cmake. To build Ceph, navigate to your cloned Ceph
+repository and execute the following::
+
+    cd ceph
+    ./do_cmake.sh
+    cd build
+    make
+
+.. topic:: Hyperthreading
+
+	You can use ``make -j`` to execute multiple jobs depending upon your system. For 
+	example, ``make -j4`` for a dual core processor may build faster.
+
+See `Installing a Build`_ to install a build in user space.
+
+Build Ceph Packages
+===================
+
+To build packages, you must clone the `Ceph`_ repository. You can create 
+installation packages from the latest code using ``dpkg-buildpackage`` for 
+Debian/Ubuntu or ``rpmbuild`` for the RPM Package Manager.
+
+.. tip:: When building on a multi-core CPU, use the ``-j`` and the number of 
+   cores * 2. For example, use ``-j4`` for a dual-core processor to accelerate 
+   the build.
+
+
+Advanced Package Tool (APT)
+---------------------------
+
+To create ``.deb`` packages for Debian/Ubuntu, ensure that you have cloned the 
+`Ceph`_ repository, installed the `Build Prerequisites`_ and installed 
+``debhelper``::
+
+	sudo apt-get install debhelper
+
+Once you have installed debhelper, you can build the packages::
+
+	sudo dpkg-buildpackage
+
+For multi-processor CPUs use the ``-j`` option to accelerate the build.
+
+
+RPM Package Manager
+-------------------
+
+To create ``.rpm`` packages, ensure that you have cloned the `Ceph`_ repository,
+installed the `Build Prerequisites`_ and installed ``rpm-build`` and 
+``rpmdevtools``::
+
+	yum install rpm-build rpmdevtools
+
+Once you have installed the tools, setup an RPM compilation environment::
+
+	rpmdev-setuptree
+
+Fetch the source tarball for the RPM compilation environment::
+
+	wget -P ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ http://ceph.com/download/ceph-<version>.tar.bz2
+
+Or from the EU mirror::
+
+	wget -P ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ http://eu.ceph.com/download/ceph-<version>.tar.bz2
+
+Extract the specfile::
+
+    tar --strip-components=1 -C ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ --no-anchored -xvjf ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ceph-<version>.tar.bz2 "ceph.spec"
+
+Build the RPM packages::
+
+	rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ceph.spec
+
+For multi-processor CPUs use the ``-j`` option to accelerate the build.
