- danielhlockard 8y agoYou're right on that, but there's no "OS" inside of a container to speak of.
- nchie 8y agoA 10mb Linux container will still share the Linux kernel with the host, hence it's still running on Linux, even if it doesn't have any dynamic dependencies. There's no OS "inside" the container, no, but it's still dependent on an OS. I think we agree. :)
