This is my first post to this list. Can some one please tell me whether there is any filesystem support available for Genode. In other words can I write on the hard disk or access it's ext2/ext3 partitions. If yes, then how to get it working. Refer me to some menu.lst file.

Currently, there's no support in Genode for hard disk access nor any file system implementation.

And, do you use some different grub?

No, we use an off-the-shelf Grub version (mostly from a recent Ubuntu version) to boot ISO images.

Also I need some help on building genode properly to get 'everything' working.

Depending on your current knowledge of Genode and what you're trying to achieve, you should consult the following resources:

By the way is their support for USB Mouse/Keyboard.

Currently, no. But USB support is on our public roadmap, which is http://genode.org/about/road-map
