HeliumOS is an atomic and immutable distribution which is built upon AlmaLinux OS. The project has published HeliumOS 10 which uses Btrfs as the default filesystem, zsh for the shell, and offers version 6.12 of the Linux kernel. "HeliumOS 10 has released with some notable changes from earlier alpha releases: Version 6.12 of the Linux kernel from AlmaLinux, signed for secure boot. zsh as default shell, with a polished and minimal configuration. BTRFS as default filesystem, with an option for LUKS full-disk encryption in the installer. Docker is installed by default, see our documentation for more details. HeliumOS build sources were migrated from a collection of Bash scripts to Ansible yaml. These are built using Podman into Bootable Container images... Two critical bugs were found and fixed during the HeliumOS 10 alpha + beta: fixed a bug through the use of HeliumOS 'Edge' edition, some devices using NVIDIA GPUs previously experienced stuttering; automatically recovers from kernel panics resulting from a bug where systemd-remount-fs.service does not function properly on bootc systems." Additional details are available in the release announcement. Download (SHA256): HeliumOS-10-x86_64-boot.iso (3,863MB, pkglist). |

Whonix
Whonix is an operating system focused on anonymity, privacy and security. It is based on the Tor anonymity network, Debian GNU/Linux and security by isolation. Whonix consists of two parts: One solely runs Tor and acts as a gateway, which is called Whonix-Gateway. The other, which is called Whonix-Workstation, is on a completely isolated network. Only connections through Tor are possible. With Whonix, you can use applications and run servers anonymously over the Internet. DNS leaks are impossible, and even malware with root privileges cannot find out the user's real IP.
