There was a version of Xenix that ran on certain 80286 machines
back in the day, but it wasn't something that anyone would
want to use and Linux would have been about the same if
anyone had bothered to make it work.  There was such a
project: http://elks.sourceforge.net/ but I'm not sure if
it matters anymore.
