The ekkoBSD project has announced the release of ekkoBSD 2.1, its first public release since the original 2003–2004 project era. ekkoBSD is a complete BSD-family operating system developed as an integrated kernel, boot chain, userland, installer, package manager, shell and documentation set.
Version 2.1 supports amd64 systems with BIOS and 64-bit UEFI boot. It ships the Rust-based Einstein installer, the signed MOM package manager and repository, and ESH as the default shell. Both the full and minimal optical images support offline installation; the minimal image carries the exact signed closure for a working base system. The release also provides a UEFI USB image, a BIOS PXE bundle, offline package media, signed checksums and public source. The initial amd64 MOM repository contains 747 packages.
