[ILUG] Linux on sub 386 chips

[Animal]

Where should I go to find Linux or equivalent to run on a sub 386 system (Dos 3.sumthin, it probably is not even a 286, old clunker of a laptop)
 
I want to be able to make some use of it, by connecting it to a 486 (which incidentally has a 3com network card).  

Any Suggetions other than "bin it" are welcome, I have no summer job and nothing better to do than research this.
