This box failed to run 386BSD equally well. That doesn't prove
it wasnt just a pile of **** of a box or that 386BSD at the time had
identical or different bugs (given the price I paid for the 386sx board
anything is possible)

His suggestion doesnt explain the 386 cases. I can believe it is valid
for 486's in some forms. Reading chipset errata makes that kind of thing
all to believable - but his is not the whole explanation for all cases
