That one requires that systemd is sitting as pid1 on the host system, no?

Also, last time i checked, rkt is specifically built on top of systemd.

No, it doesn't require that. rkt (for example) is tested on systems that don't have systemd as PID1.

And yeah, the default rkt stage1 implementation uses `systemd-nspawn` internally.
