- stock_toaster 13y agoSmartOS also offers container based virtualization of SmartOS (zones), which can run inside normal virtualization. It also, just like Linux, can additionally run other OS's inside KVM (native port). You are correct though that SmartOS does not offer container based virtualization of Linux. So to answer my own question, I guess.. "yes"
