First check if rust’s -Werror equivalent is enabled by the build system. If not, make sure your toolchain is up date, and if it already is then get a different version/build from rustup or your distro.

It posts that, then the next line it 37 compiler warnings present ccache (direct) hit rate: 0.0%; (preprocessed) hit rate: 0.0%; miss rate: 0.0%
It dosnt say anything else

UEFI is easier to manage, has a boot loader built in and has better pre-boot graphics support (faster init, higher resolutions, no switching back and forth between text mode).
