   I am using BusLogic 946C PCI cards in several P90's.  They all installed
   fine and run NetBSD 1.0 fine, except that every now and then I get:

   Dec 19 02:01:08 sparta /netbsd: bt0: mbi at 0xf870ca34 should be found, stat=81.
   .resync

This looks like cache coherency problems.  If you have write-back
caching, try to use it in write-through mode and see if this makes the
problem go away.  If that still doesn't help, try disabling caching
altogether, and see if that helps.
