   I also have a BusLogic 445S Rev D with 3.36 BIOS, but that doesn't even 
   boot with 32Mb. Friend informed me that I'd need a Rev E board with a 3.37
   version BIOS for this. 

Well, it will if you switch SW2-10 to the OFF position.  You should
take a look at the KNOWNBUGS file in freebsd-current; I've documented
some of this.


   Fortunatly he agreed to let me use the Rev D. board until he had a
   replacement.

You're lucky - I'm stuck with my revision C board forever! :-(
