    So, about 1988 there was a Xenix 386PC for the Model 80. Curious, blue.
    This intrigues me.

    386PC and 386MC. Nice to know period names...

    For 386MC, only a SCSI controller is supported as a second hard
    disk controller. For 286MC, there is no support for a second hard
    disk controller. For 286AT, only an ST506 controller is supported
    as a second hard disk controller
