I don't have much to add on chromosomal isolation, but:

Nope; supercoiling yields three bands. One for supercoiled DNA, one for
circular but relaxed (single-strand nick) and another for linearised
(double-stranded break). A smear indicates DNA degradation beyond nicks
or single-point breaks, or impure sample (as in, more than just DNA in
there).
