Just recently scrapped my last 386 laptop, a dual boot DOS/Xenix 2.3.4 running on a 10/10 HD split IIRC. In its place is a dual boot 486 with DOS and SCO 4.2 unix.
Although SCO wanted specific hardware I was able to put their stuff on a bunch of hardware they probably never heard of and probably wouldn't have supported, if they supported anything. ( ongoing snipe)
Whatever you choose, it probably will need ISA bus and a MFM set, or possibly a SCSI set, although SCSI controllers for that vintage are going scarce.
