Not sure about 3.11, but I ran 3.1 on a 286.

The Z-100 had a 386 version? Didn't know it went that far, I thought thwye
were just 8088 or 8086 like clones.

I'm pretty sure that Win3.11 didn't work on anything less that a 386sx.
I had a several 386 machines (one Toshiba 386sx laptop, Network Associates
Ethernet/Token Ring sniffer that cost $25k). They all ran Win 3.11.
