Update dockerfile to build

[nicholasmello]

Can be run with the commands:

docker build -t liberty .
docker run -v $(pwd):/mnt -ti liberty

Fix for issue #5

[danielteberian]

Full disclosure: I am not very good at using Docker. I understand how it works, what it is for, and why it would be good to have for the kernel, but I could never get Docker to work on my computer.

What would the user need to do in order to set up the OS using Docker? Could we create a file to explain how to use Docker with the kernel?

Once docker is installed it is as simple as running those 2 commands. What docker issues specifically were you running into? I might be able to help out. I haven't tried anything on Windows but I do have a Windows computer (I develop on KDE Neon) and I suspect the second command will work in powershell. I can write up a document with links to setting up docker on different operating systems as well as these commands that you need to run.

docker build -t liberty .
Sets up the environment and builds the image

docker run -v $(pwd):/mnt -ti liberty
Runs the copy script to copy the target folder into the target folder in the directory you are in.

Looking at that failed build, the warnings look to be related to me bumping the version to a newer version, I can make those fixes.

[danielteberian]

If you can set that all up, go for it. Could I merge this request?

[nicholasmello]

Yeah I can do that as a separate request and we can get this merged in

[danielteberian]

Hooplah!

What's the status for this PR? I would love to merge it, but I am not sure if you were finished working on it.

i pushed a PR that seems to have failed tests trying to run bootimage. the container itself doesn't seem to need it. not seeing what I missed so far. Pretty new to this level of embedded development.

Apparently there is an issue with the test runner environment/configuration. all PR being pushed are failing on the test phase including from danielteberian. Something with getting the bootimage command installed correctly? Any ideas?

If you are referring to the tests that are run by Github, they have never worked. If I remember correctly, the tests do not work without the standard library for Rust, but I could be mistaken. Perhaps I should just stop Github from automatically testing each version that is pushed to the repository. Don't be alarmed about the tests failing. If the kernel does not compile, then we have reason to be worried. As of right now, the kernel compiles without any warnings, so that is good.

If you are referring to "cargo test", then there is a longer explanation to be given. The kernel does have tests, but they have to be executed individually. For some reason, "cargo test" causes an error.
