Windows? no that's just the guide obviously you can use linux.

I can't see any reason as to why virt wouldn't work on a HVM assuming 
the correct cpu flags are passed through.

Hard to do an FAQ on this, because there are so many ways to try to do
nested virtualization, and they don't all turn out the same way. But
feel free to submit a PR if you like. :)

this should be a faq somewhere, it keeps getting brought up.

xen supports nested virtualization, see here: 
https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Nested_Virtualization_in_Xen

but, this is disabled in qubes because of the large attack surface it 
introduces. containers, like docker and lxc, are possible, as is emulation like 
running qemu without kvm extensions or virtualbox with 32bit guests with 
acceleration turned off. 

you could make your own qubes build with it on. look for marmarek in 
qubes-devel for threads on that.

VirtualBox definitely did not work for me, but I only tried it once and mostly 
out of curiosity. I can't remember the error... something about being unable to 
load a kernel module maybe?

Yeah, currently I'm using LXC Containers inside AppVMs.

What do you need exactly?
