Also, an 8088 cannot run Linux (but it can ran ELKS, which at least has "Linux" in the acronym), while there were a few Unices for 8086-class CPUs - with SCO Xenix being probably the most functional of them all.

Yes, but technically an Unix-like :)

There were a couple more, Coherent (also Unix-like) and PC/IX come to mind too
