OpenBSD is a lightweight operating system designed with code correctness and security in mind. The project has released OpenBSD 6.2 which features many new drivers, particularly for the ARM architecture, and network packet handling performance improvements. Some key features have been added to the system installer too, including checking for security updates on the system's first boot: "Installer improvements: The installer now uses the Allotment Routing Table (ART). A unique kernel is now created by the installer to boot from after install/upgrade. On release installs of architectures supported by syspatch, "syspatch -c" is now added to rc.firsttime. Backwards compatibility code to support the 'rtsol' keyword in hostname.if(5) has been removed. The install.site and upgrade.site scripts are now executed at the end of the install/upgrade process. More detailed information is shown to identify disks. The IPv6 default router selection has been fixed. On the amd64 platform, AES-NI is used if present."

We are pleased to announce the official release of OpenBSD 6.1. As in our previous releases, 6.1 provides significant improvements, including new features, in nearly all areas of the system. The installer now uses privilege separation for fetching and verifying the install sets. Install sets are now fetched over an HTTPS connection by default when using a mirror that supports it. The installer now considers all of the DHCP information in file name, boot file-name, server-name, tftp-server-name, and next-server when attempting to do automatic installs or upgrades. The installer no longer adds a route to an alias IP via 127.0.0.1, due to improvements in the kernel routing components.

The OpenBSD team has announced the availability of a new stable release of their security-oriented operating system. The new release, OpenBSD 6.0, introduces many bug fixes, improved driver support for many devices and fixes a number of potential security issues in OpenSSH. The new release also features a new tool, proot, for building software ports in an isolated chroot environment. Support for the VAX platform has been dropped for this release. "New/extended platforms: armv7 - EFI bootloader added, kernels are now loaded from FFS instead of FAT or EXT file systems, without U-Boot headers. A single kernel and ramdisk are now used for all SoCs. Hardware is dynamically enumerated via Flattened Device Tree (FDT) instead of via static tables based on board id numbers. Miniroot installer images include U-Boot 2016.07 with support for EFI payloads. vax - Removed."
