How much memory do the machine have?
128 MB, which is the same as the 705A that was showing similar symptoms in the linked thread.

Hi,
I have a 4000/500A with CMD CQD-223/TM SCSI controller. I did a network install of 10.0_RC3 onto a 4.3GB SCSI disk and it all proceeded normally until the reboot when the kernel failed to find the CMD controller. If I netboot the same kernel, it does find the CMD card and the system runs normally. I have since updated to the RC4 kernel and see the same behaviour. The relevant lines from kernel are:

Booting the same kernel from the SCSI disk (DUA1):
[ 1.0000000] uba0 at mainbus0: Q22
[ 1.0000000] mtc0 at uba0 csr 174500 vec 774 ipl 17

The CMD card at mscpbus1 is missing when booted from disk.
Looking back through the mailing list archives, I see something similar reported for 9.3 on a 705A in this thread:

However, it doesn't look like a solution was found. Did anyone find a solution?
