I followed the instructions on [http://annasob.wordpress.com/category/build/ annasob's blog] on how to build firefox on different platforms, also took a look at Build instructions @ [https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Developer_Guide/Build_Instructions developer.mozilla.org].
 
First, I tried to build firefox on Vista:
 
- Intel Processor Dual Core 2.0 Ghz
- 2GB DDR2 memory
- Windows Vista 32bit
- Visual Studio 2010
and my .mozconfig looked like this:
 
<code>
 
. $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig
mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/objdir-ff-release
mk_add_options MOZ_MAKE_FLAGS="-j2"
mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=browser
 
ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
ac_add_options --disable-optimize
ac_add_options --enable-debug
</code>
