SCO sell (or used to sell) a PC Xenix, the release notes are still
shipped with the Xenix 286 and 386 sofware (a good policy that
you know what version you may meet on other systems) 

According to the notes it's called Xenix-86XT and runs on:

ARC-XT, AT&T 6300, Compaq portable and DeskPro, Eagle
IBM PC XT, ITT XP, ITT XTRA and lots more.
