Cool project! This reminds me of Chis Noeding's YouTube Channel, where he's been posting his progress on running custom firmware on the newer Behringer X32 mixers - https://www.youtube.com/@pcdimmer
Using x86 in embedded products is not new, especially older ones from the 90s, it was extremely common actually to run DOS or VXworks or QNX. It's all over industrial products. In fact Intel still shipped 386 CPUs until a few years ago.* It's cool and all but if we wrote blog posts about all of them you'd be set for the next 10 years.
* Supposedly 2007 but that does not sound right for embedded customers unless Intel built a lifetime supply.
