Mesosphere has had an open-source free version for nearly a year now. You can read about it here:

Are there package repositories for DC/OS somewhere? I could only find these install scripts but I guess they are meant for demo installations.

DC/OS has a unique packaging mechanism, and cannot be found as a traditional Linux package. (Personally, I'd love to see that happen at some point but for simplicity's sake, it's distributed as a single binary - this allows us to upgrade the bits on nodes near atomically).

There are three ways to install it: 1) Cloud provider specific templates (e.g. CloudFormation / Azure Resource Manager. GCP support is on the backlog)

2) The ssh installer (this has a UI and a CLI). I believe this doesn't work well for larger installations because of the one to many issue.

3) The advanced install method. This generates a binary that is copied to each node. You can integrate this with Puppet, Chef, Ansible and so on.

https://dcos.io/install/ and https://dcos.io/docs/ has more details on this.
