And I know I had problems finding controllers on an 8650 if I had too much memory. But I think that was more than 128M. But it could be related. There were some things spotted/fixed for VAX in the kernel not long ago. How long ago was your kernel built?

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.
