I have FreeBSD running fine on a HiNT 486DX/33 with ISA.  No problems
to date with FreeBSD.  I have used 386BSD+patchkit all the way up to
FreeBSD-release.

I also have a second HiNT 486DX/33 with EISA/ISA/VESA-LB slots.
FreeBSD runs fine on this one also.  

They only problem that I had was installing WIN NT Advanced Server
on the EISA/ISA/VESA-LB motherboard.
