Odd. I thought image was built in default storage dir: /var/lib/docker

# docker system info | fgrep /
Docker Root Dir: /var/lib/docker

The default might be distrib dependent, my workstation is on Fedora.

Maybe while building a tmpfs is mount as /tmp within the temp container, 
and your ram is limited so it gets full while downloading packages to 
install? Sincerely I have no clue. Docker is not your friend :/

Here they say you can change the docker dir with '-g'

Can you paste the error context?
