For the tablet porting questions, please ask at android-porting group instead of android-building.
For the minimum host configuration question, I suspect that 8 GB of RAM is insufficient. https://source.android.com/setup/requirements says minimum of 16 GB RAM for VMs, but I think that is also true for non-VMs. I would recommend much more than 16 GB if you can get it. For example 64 GB is better.
