  Could I get nano-X to work on a 286 cga with 1mb ram?

  I'm not aware that anyone has written a cga mode driver for nano-X.
(what's the graphics ability of a cga card?)  But via elks or dos it's
entirely feasible that microwindows/nanox will run perfectly.  I suggest you
investigate ELKS for an OS and then nano-X on top of that.  I alsu suspect
that you will have to write some code of your own to get cga running :)
