Hey... looking closer into this problem.. This is what's causing my mediator ZIV to crash when I use any sound or network cards..

Without the buddha in it works fine...

I also found that there is a trouble with the buddha and certain ATAPI DVD drives... which will cause a system lock if you try and access them...

I have a Buddha Gold here too, that worked fine in my A4000..
I can't test the Phoenix edition though because my A4000 motherboard has died a terrible death :(

If someone wants to donate a motherboard though then I will be more than happy to test it all out :)

@Argus

Yeah, it seems that with that combination of card the buddha ROM and the SCSI ROM on the GVP card conflict somewhere along the line...

You'll either have to disable the SCSI on the GVP card or (if possible) disable the bootrom on the buddha... (ask on http://www.ami.ga if there doesn't seem to be a way of doing it)

I personally just use the buddha for my bootdrive and CD Drive (Although the buddha doesn't handle atapi dvd drives very well), not too worried about boot or access speed on my A2000 personally though
