# Container Example
Very basic example of launching a Linux container using Containerization.
## Build and Run
### 1. Fetch Kernel
In your terminal, change directories to examples/ctr-example and run
`make fetch-default-kernel`
You should now see the `vmlinux` image in examples/ctr-example
### 2. Build/Run ctr-example
From examples/ctr-example run
`make all`
> [!WARNING]
> If you get the following error, try building from the default macOS terminal:
> `error: compiled module was created by a newer version of the compiler`
After the build completes, the example will run. In your terminal you should see something like:
```
Starting container example...
Fetching container initial filesystem...
Creating container from docker.io/library/alpine:3.16...
Starting container...
/ #
```
> [!WARNING]
> If you get the following error, try moving the `ctr-example` binary to `/var/tmp` and run it from there.
> `Swift/ErrorType.swift:254: Fatal error: Error raised at top level: unsupported: "failed to create vmnet network with status vmnet_return_t(rawValue: 1001)"`
**Congratulations, you've started the example container!**
