i believe there is variatns for the 286, but cant imagine there being any
for the 8088 and 8086 there just isn't enough memory to do anything useful
on those machines. i remember my 286 had  4MB of ram, combined with swap
it could do some stuff in linux im sure(never tried)

minix was probably 386 and higher as well, as i imagine there are too many
restraints on the design on anything less then 386 that make it hard to
program something like an OS for.
