Mernel

✨ A secure and efficent unix-like kernel ✨

Introduction

Mernel is a Unix-like system kernel designed to provide an easy-to-use platform for learning kernel development and operating system principles.Mernel is a macro kernel, meaning that the kernel and the application run in the same memory space. This makes the Mernel lighter, faster, and easier to develop and debug.

The Mernel is written in Rust and C for core kernel functionality and driver development respectively.

Troubleshooting

Kernel compilation failure

If you encounter an error while compiling the Mernel, you can try the following steps to resolve it.

  • Make sure you have installed the required dependencies, including Rust, Cargo, GCC, and NASM.
  • Check the code for syntax errors or compilation errors. You can use Rust's cargo check command to check the code for syntax issues.
  • Try to clean the compile cache and recompile. You can use the cargo clean command to clean the compilation cache and then recompile with cargo build.

Kernel load failure

If you encounter an error while loading the Mernel using GRUB, you can try the following steps to resolve it.

  • Make sure that the kernel.bin file has been copied to the root directory of the floppy or USB flash drive.
  • Make sure that the path in the GRUB configuration file (usually grub.cfg) points to kernel.bin correctly.
  • Try using the ls command to view the contents of the floppy or USB flash drive to ensure that it contains the kernel.bin file.
  • Try looking at the GRUB environment variables with the set command to ensure that the root variable is pointing to the correct device.
